Zelenskyy about the shelling of Ukraine: We are dealing with "shaheeds"
On October 10, 2022, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivered a video message to Ukrainians on his Telegram channel in connection with rocket attacks. The Head of State urged citizens to stay in shelters and observe safety rules.
“Dozens of missiles, Iranian ‘Shaheeds’. They have two targets. Power facilities – across the country. Kyiv region and Khmelnytsky region, Lviv and Dnieper, Vinnytsia, Frankivsk region, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy region, Kharkiv region, Zhytormyr region, Kirovohrad region, south. <…> The second target is people. They deliberately chose such a time and such goals in order to cause more harm,” Zelenskyy said.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that Zelenskyy thanked Patriarch Bartholomew for condemning the war.
