The Ukrainian President also thanked the servicemen of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Defence forces of Ukraine, Ukraine’s Defence Intelligence and all agencies for the timely and effective strikes on Russian airfields.
“Our Ukrainian drones are working exactly as they should. But there are some things that cannot be done with drones alone, unfortunately. We need other weapons –- missile weapons. And we continue working with our partners on long-range decisions for Ukraine -– because these are forward-looking decisions for our victory. It has to be done. The bolder our partners’ decisions, the less Putin can do.”
“Today’s report from the head of the Security Service of Ukraine was positive. I want to thank all our SBU warriors, as well as the warriors of the Defence Forces of Ukraine, the Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR), and all the structures involved. I thank for the precise, timely, and effective strikes on Russian airfields.”
