The President shared the update in his evening video address published in his Telegram channel.

"Since February 24, the Russian army has launched 1,474 missile strikes in Ukraine, using 2,275 different missiles. The vast majority hit civilian targets. In less than three months, there have been 3,000 air strikes by Russian planes and helicopters. What other country has withstood such a scale?," said Zelensky.

Zelensky added that requests to partners for modern anti-missile weapons and combat aircraft are not just formal requests.

"We say that our request is the real lives of many people who wouldn't have died if we had received all the weapons we are seeking for," he concluded.
