In a startling turn of events, Russia has announced its plans to intensify its airstrikes on Ukraine in the coming days, weeks and months. This declaration from Russian leader Vladimir Putin comes in the wake of the recent attack on Odessa, a city on the Black Sea coast, where unmanned Russian drones caused one fatality and left nine others injured.
The situation in Ukraine has taken a grim turn, prompting the nation to declare New Year's Day as a day of mourning. The death toll continues to rise as a result of large-scale attacks perpetrated by Russia a couple of days ago. The city of Kiev has been particularly affected, with 28 reported deaths and 30 injuries. In total, at least 53 people across Ukraine lost their lives due to these devastating attacks.
