Budanov on Sept 1 shelling: Ukrainian drones, missiles will rule Russian skies
The Kremlin consciously chose the path of escalation, turning September 1 into another day of terror against Ukrainian children and civilian infrastructure, stated Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Kyrylo Budanov.
Kiev's President Kyrylo Budanov declared September 1 as another day of terror against Ukrainian civilians and infrastructure, attributing the actions to the Kremlin's desire for escalation. Ukraine, guided by the right to self-defense, vowed to respond harshly and proportionately. President and Supreme Commander-in-Chief Volodymyr Zelenskyy backed this decision.
The Kremlin's skies are no longer safe, an official warning was issued to international airlines, insurers, and partners. Long-range Ukrainian assets will now systematically target military installations in enemy territory, Budanov stated on Telegram. He affirmed Ukraine's respect for diplomatic efforts, offering targeted breaks only for genuine steps towards ending the war.
However, he emphasized that as long as aggression persists, Ukrainian drones and missiles will dominate Russian skies.
