Russia to increase its campaign of drone bombardments on Ukraine according to the President

According to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Russia intends to "exhaust" Ukraine into submission through a lengthy campaign of drone assaults and aerial bombardments.

Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine has received information that Russia will step up its campaign of drone assaults on the country in his evening address to the nation on Monday.

Zelenskyy stated, "We have evidence that Russia is preparing a long-term strike employing Shahed drones. It's presumably counting on fatigue. consuming all of our energy, manpower, and anti-aircraft defenses," he stated.

According to him, Ukraine must "act and do everything to ensure that the terrorists fail in their purpose, as all of their previous attempts have failed."

Following Russian missile and drone assaults that rocked Kyiv and other locations on New Year's Eve and early on New Year's Day, killing at least five people and injuring others, key infrastructure in Kyiv and the surrounding areas was targeted early on Monday.

In just the first two days of 2023, Zelenskyy said that Ukrainian troops had fired dozens of drones, and he predicted that the number would soon rise. "Only two days have elapsed since the year began… "Over 80 drones have already been shot down over Ukraine," he claimed. "This number might rise shortly."

The Russian military is increasingly utilizing so-called kamikaze drones, which are armed with explosives that fall vertically and quickly on their target after their flight route, causing significant damage and deaths.

The Russian drone war plan has been to launch a large number of unmanned projectiles at a specific target and overload Ukraine's air surveillance and defense systems, despite the Iranian Shahed drones' comparatively sluggish movement and ease of target for the country's air defenses.

Before admitting in November that it had delivered a "small quantity" of the aerial bombs to Moscow, Iran has always denied giving Russia drones for use in the Ukraine War while maintaining that they were in the hands of Russian forces before the invasion of Ukraine started.
