It's a shame that people got hurt again. And 23 ballistic missiles is a lot; it’s not surprising that they couldn’t do anything without interceptor missiles.

Too bad for the people there, especially when I read that none of the 23 missiles were shot down. Ekaterina, are they really running out of interceptors that quickly?

Too bad for the people of Kiev, especially when I read that none of the 23 missiles were shot down. Ekaterina, are they really running out of interceptors that quickly? One wonders how much longer this will last.

Pity for the people in Kyiv who again did not have time to protect themselves. 23 ballistic missiles is indeed a lot, but even without interceptor missiles you can't do much.
