"Last night, Russia launched one of the most massive airstrikes since the beginning of the war: over 800 drones and ballistic missiles against Ukraine. Among the targets - the Government building in Kyiv and residential areas. Putin's rockets and drones once again killed innocent people," Minister Mosteanu wrote on the X platform.
According to the Defence Minister, Russia wants to destroy Ukraine and intimidate Europe.
"This is the true face of Putin's regime: terror, destruction, war crimes. There is no intention of peace in this barbaric attack. The Kremlin wants to destroy Ukraine and intimidate Europe. Romania firmly condemns these criminal attacks," Ionut Mosteanu added.
Russia launched airstrikes on several Ukrainian cities Saturday night; one of the attacks caused major damage to buildings in Kyiv, killing three people, including a one-year-old child.
