Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commented on military activities carried out by the army and security units against Russian targets, as well as diplomatic steps to be taken in the coming period.

Referring to the operations of military units, Zelensky said, "Today, I thank the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Security Service; the operation targeting Russian oil refineries continues, and they are really feeling it. Russian anti-aircraft missile systems and radar stations were also hit, and we carried out retaliatory strikes targeting Russian infrastructure in the Azov and Black Sea regions."

Pointing to the reason behind the continuing attacks, Zelensky said, "The only reason this is still continuing is Russia's unwillingness to end this war."

Drawing attention to diplomatic contacts in the coming week, Zelensky said, "This week, we will establish new contacts with mediators, particularly regarding the necessary steps and proposals. Ukraine is always active in diplomacy."

Zelensky stated that talks on air defense support would continue and concluded, "There will also be new contacts to secure air defense packages."
