Since the beginning of the year, the Russians have launched 5 “Zircon” missiles towards Kyiv

This was reported by the Chief of the Kyiv Military Administration, Serhiy Popko.

“The aggressor is trying to intimidate us, to destroy our beautiful city. But he will not succeed. No matter how much weaponry the enemy has, the statistics of air strikes on Kyiv for the first quarter of this year serve as evidence. From 01.01.2024 to 01.04.2024, the enemy used over 180 means of attack directed towards Kyiv”, he stated.

Additionally, Kyiv was targeted with 11 “Kinzhals,” 6 “Iskanders,” 1 “Caliber,” 3 X-69 missiles, 113 X-101 missiles, and 48 “Shahed” drones. In total, there were over 180 aerial targets.

Popko announced that he will appeal to international partners for weapons and air defense systems to close the sky over peaceful Ukrainian cities.

“I will always appeal to our international partners – we need weapons! We need air defense systems. No one in history has endured such a quantity and power of missile strikes. The democratic world must help close the sky over peaceful Ukrainian cities. More air defense means more lives saved. And the closer we are to Victory!”, emphasized Popko.
