Ukraine still under attack.

And the fury of enemy fire does not subside , which continues to reap victims throughout the country . A 2-year-old girl died in the Russian raid last night in the Dnipropetrovsk region. His body was pulled from the rubble of a building on the outskirts of Dnipro . This was reported by the governor of the region, Sergiy Lysak, as reported by the national media.

Meanwhile, the number of injured in the attack has risen to 22 . Four civilians died and eight others were injured in yesterday's Russian shelling of the Donetsk region in eastern Ukraine. The data was reported on Telegram by the head of the regional administration. Terror and desolation also in the Kharkiv oblast and in the Sumy region. "The Ukrainian air defenses destroyed all the missiles and drones that Russia launched against Kiev last night," wrote the head of the military administration of the Ukrainian capital, Serhii Popko, on social media. "All missiles and drones aimed at Kiev were intercepted in the distant outskirts of the city," Popko specified, adding that "the Russians launched the attack from Tu-95MS strategic bombers in the Caspian region. According to preliminary information, no air targets have reached the capital. Everything that was on its way to the city was destroyed by air defense on the distant outskirts. For the second night in a row, the people of Kiev did not hear the explosions above their heads.

But in the meantime Ukraine is preparing to "respond" to the Kremlin. " We are ready to launch a counter-offensive, we strongly believe that we will succeed ," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said yesterday in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. After the confession, to the microphones of the American newspaper, also the recognition of Russian air superiority and the " lack of protection from this threat . This means that a large number of soldiers will die. I don't know how long it will take. We would have liked more weapons from the West for the next campaign, but Ukraine is ready to move."

But the "air of comeback" did not last long: today, on Telegram, the denial came from the Ukrainian Deputy Minister of Defense, Hanna Malyar: «Plans love silence. There will be no announcement of the start of our offensive.' The message is accompanied by a video in which several soldiers call for silence with their index fingers on their lips.
