KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia is preparing to step up its attacks on Ukraine using Iranian-made explosive drones, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as Moscow looks for ways to keep pressure on Kyiv after months of setbacks on the battlefield for the The Kremlin War strategy.
“We have information that Russia is planning a prolonged attack by Shaheds (explosive drones),” Zelenskyy said in his late-night video address Monday night.
