President Vodimir Zelensky said at least five people were killed and five injured during a Russian missile strike in the Ukrainian city of Denipro.
“Russia obviously ignores diplomacy and its connection to the world is simply to serve its own interests, not to end the war,” Zelensky said in his night video address.
“What is needed now is a strategy of pressure – Russia is about to end the pressure of terror and war. I thank everyone around the world for helping us in this effort.”
Zelensky also reported attacks on the capital Kiev and the city of Nicopol.
Zelensky added that attacks were also launched on the Kharkiv, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhya, Mykolaiv and Sumy areas.
Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, and daily missile and drone attacks continued with ground wars.
