Russia, even on New Year's Eve, was only concerned with hurting Ukraine. One hundred and eleven attack drones against our cities. Most of them failed to reach their targets thanks to our air defences, our mobile fire teams and our REB systems. But unfortunately, one casualty is known at this time. My condolences to the family and friends. There are also casualties and destruction. All services are involved," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
