The presidency, however, assured its office was working"as usual in compliance with standard security measures: if the alarm sounds, we will be in shelters". "We have, in fact, derailed the entire 2025 campaign," Defence Minister Andrei Belousov said of the Ukrainian army in a video published by the Russian defence ministry.
The attack, which apparently targeted an aerospace manufacturing plant in the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro, sparked immediate condemnation from Kyiv's allies. Asked if it marked a new turn in the conflict and if he feared an escalation, Riga said,"of course I am afraid. Anything can happen".Washington said it had granted Kyiv permission to fire long-range weapons at Russian territory as a response to the Kremlin's deployment of thousands of North Korean troops on Ukraine's border.
