229th day of a full-scale war. On the 229th day, they are trying to destroy us and wipe us off the face of the earth. Generally. Destroy our people who sleep at home in Zaporozhye. Kill people who leave for work in Dnipro and Kyiv. The air raid is not abating all over Ukraine. There are missile hits. Unfortunately, there are dead and wounded. I beg you: do not leave shelters. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Let's hold on and be strong," the president said in a statement.
