Ukraine President Zelensky Warns of Potential Russian Invasion of Key Cities in Eastern Ukraine

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned of a potential Russian invasion of key cities in eastern Ukraine if they seize control of Bakhmut. In an interview with CNN, Zelensky stated that the Ukrainian military is united in prolonging its defense of the city after weeks of Russian attacks.

On Thursday, Zelensky reported that Russia had unleashed “a massive rocket attack” that hit critical infrastructure and residential buildings in 10 regions of Ukraine, resulting in at least six deaths. The attack came while many people were sleeping and was described by Zelensky as an attempt by Moscow “to intimidate Ukrainians again.”

The Kremlin’s forces started targeting Ukraine’s power supply last October in an apparent attempt to demoralize the civilian population. Zelenskyy stated that the occupiers can only terrorize civilians and that they could go to Kramatorsk or Sloviansk after Bakhmut.

The Ukrainian president has called on the international community to support Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. He also urged the Ukrainian people to remain strong and united in the face of the Russian threat.

The situation in Ukraine is a reminder of the importance of international cooperation in the face of aggression. The international community must stand together to ensure that the sovereignty of Ukraine is respected and that the people of Ukraine are protected from further violence.
