In a post on X (Twitter), Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy disclosed that Russia has attacked 15 Ukrainian oblasts over the course of the past week. The attacks involved 1,400 drones, almost 1,500 guided aerial bombs, and 19 missiles.

Zelenskyy noted that the regions of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, and Sumy have faced almost daily strikes. He emphasized that strengthening air defense, particularly anti-ballistic protection, expanding cooperation within the Drone Deal format, and increasing pressure on the aggressor are key priorities. Sanctions against Russia and its partners over this war must be enforced where they will have the greatest impact.

Separately, Ukraine's Air Force reported that on the night of June 26-27, Russia attacked with 129 UAVs, of which 113 were either shot down or jammed.
