Ukrainian President Zelensky vows revenge after fresh Russian attacks killed more than 14 civilians and injured more than 20 people. The Russian attacks took place in the Ukrainian capital Kiev and in an apartment building in Zaporizhia.
After a front-line visit to Zelensky’s Bachmut, he responded to last night’s attacks by saying that “the occupier will receive a guaranteed response to any attack” on Ukrainian cities. “All Russian attacks will have a military, political and legal response.”

Logical answer
Europe reporter Geert Jan Hahn calls Zelensky’s reaction “logical”. “He has to make it for home consumption. It must indicate that Russia cannot do this and that Ukraine will respond.” Such a reaction will not be unexpected in the future either. “These types of attacks keep coming and going.”
“In particular, the arrival of Western weapons wants to sabotage Russia”
What also strikes Hahn is that the scope of Russian attacks is changing. ‘He no longer focuses on energy infrastructure. Based on the targets that the Russians have hit or want to hit, we see that this time it’s about logistics. Russia particularly wants to sabotage the arrival of Western weapons”.

Foreign commentator Bernard Hammelburg compliments him by saying that “roads” and “railways” are primarily the target. “All the things we deliver, like the Patriots, must arrive in Ukraine by road or rail. If Russia keeps attacking those supply lines, there will be a new problem.”
