Zelensky warns of wider drone, missile attacks on Russia
Oct 28, 2025
Kyiv [Ukraine], October 28: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned on Monday that Kiev plans to expand its drone and missile strikes to additional Russian regions.
"The capabilities for long-range strikes are a component of our independence and will be the most important component in guaranteeing peace," he said in his evening video message. He added that military leaders had discussed strike targets through the end of the year, including a "geographical expansion" of attacks.
A day before, however, Zelensky had acknowledged a "technical problem" with the production of the long-planned Ukrainian cruise missiles known as Flamingo.
Ukraine has been resisting the Russian invasion for more than three and a half years, and has carried out strikes deep into Russian territory, primarily with drones. Russian authorities said on Saturday they had intercepted a large-scale Ukrainian drone attack on Moscow. (DPA)
