In response to Russia’s attacks on Ukraine, the Ukrainian military carried out a series of retaliatory strikes from March 16 to March 22. The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense announced that the strikes were carried out with high-precision long-range weapons, including hypersonic missiles and drones.
The targets of these strikes included decision-making centers, aircraft infrastructure facilities, weapons and military equipment repair shops, drone warehouses, logistics bases, and temporary locations of foreign mercenaries. The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense emphasized the precision and purposefulness of these retaliatory strikes.
During a discussion with members of the Security Council, President Volodymyr Zelensky asserted that the enemy’s attacks on peaceful Ukrainian settlements during the pre-election period would not go unpunished. This strong response from Ukraine comes amidst escalating tensions between the two countries.
As the situation continues to unfold, both sides are closely monitoring the developments and taking strategic measures to protect their interests and ensure national security. The ongoing conflict underscores the importance of diplomacy and international cooperation in addressing complex geopolitical challenges and working towards peaceful resolutions.
