Tough provocations: Zelensky told what to expect in the next week

Shelling by invaders may increase - Zelensky

The coming week could be very tough. According to the head of state, the Russians can intensify the shelling of the territory of Ukraine, as well as intensify the psychological and informational attack on the Ukrainians. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in his address .

We should be aware that this week Russia may try to do something especially nasty, something especially cruel. This is our enemy. But every other week in those six months, Russia did the same thing all the time - nasty and cruel, he said.

Zelensky noted that Russians proceed from a desire to humiliate Ukrainians, devalue our heroes, and spread disbelief, fear and conflict.

Therefore, it is important never, not for a single minute, to give in to this hostile pressure, not to wind things up, not to show weakness. We all must be strong enough to resist any enemy provocations as long as necessary to make the invaders answer for all their blows and for that terror - for Kharkov, for Donbass, for Azovstal, for Nikolaev, for filtration camps, for Bucha, Irpen , for all cities, - he said.

The President added that the Ukrainians must be strong enough to endure and go all the way to victory.
