Thirty-one “Shahed” drones in a single night—that’s approximately 2,635 components from other countries: microchips, switches, transceivers. All supplies of any components for terror to Russia must be completely cut off to stop this terror. And this is not just about protecting lives in Ukraine. Right now, Russian “Shaheds” are... striking the homes of our people and our infrastructure, but at any moment, the Russians could shift this terror to any other country—wherever they are ordered to. Already, different countries are experiencing drone-related incidents on their own territory, and the entire world has witnessed how drones are reshaping warfare. It is necessary to consciously and decisively deprive regimes like Russia’s of such terrorist capabilities. And absolutely everyone who helps Russia build its terrorist potential, circumvent sanctions, and establish weapons production facilities must be held accountable.show more

Every component that fuels Russian terror needs to be severed. The world must act decisively. No more excuses. Terrorism thrives on supply chains, and we have the power to cut them off.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry will gather ambassadors from countries that can help. Help not only our resilience, but also in fact themselves – if certain countries cut off the blatantly reprehensible schemes of supplying Russia with critical components for the production of missiles and drones, the Russian threat will become drastically smaller. Putin does not know how to wage war without terror. Russia would not have a single missile or most of its drones, and therefore would not be able to cause significant damage to our energy sector, if they were unable to purchase or somehow import Western-made components for missiles and "shaheds", as well as components and machinery from South Korea, Japan, China, and Taiwan. Unfortunately, many critical components are still being supplied to Russia from Europe and the US. And we are not talking about a dozen components, but hundreds of thousands of components, purely commercial supplies. The direct consequence of all this is that the Russians are terrorizing our country, threatening other countries, behaving despicably, and refusing to make peace. There are specific points that must be pressured. And we are doing everything to make that pressure work. The world has the power to stop terror – any terror – and Russia is no exception.

Every terror attack carried out by Russia demonstrates that global sanctions against Putin's regime remain insufficient. Each Russian missile used by these beasts against our country contains components made by companies in other countries, not Russia. A Kh-101 missile has at least 53 such components. A Kh-47M2 Kinzhal contains at least 49 types of components that are not manufactured in Russia. The majority of these components are produced by companies around the world and brought to Russia through shady schemes. It is imperative to block such schemes and those who support them. There needs to be more sanctions. There must be greater accountability for sanctions evasion schemes. I am grateful to all the countries and leaders who are doing this. However, the pressure on Russia must be far greater. Only today, and only in the missiles that targeted Kyiv, more than 1500 components brought to the terrorist state from normal countries were found. This must stop, and the world has the necessary leverage.

Odesa is recovering after yesterday’s strikes on the city center. Museums, the Philharmonic, many historic buildings, and the famous Odesa hotel were damaged. The attack targeted not only Ukrainians but even Norwegian diplomats working in Ukraine. We must always be absolutely honest about this kind of Russian terror—they would not be able to inflict such destruction, with such intensity, on their own, night after night. Every Russian Shahed, every Russian missile consists of components produced in other countries. 165 strike units in a single night by Russia—all these Iskanders, Kalibrs, and other killing machines consist of hundreds, even thousands of components from other countries. European nations, China, and even the U.S. Without these critical components, Russia would have no ability to destroy the lives of others. That is why it is absolutely crucial for sanctions to be truly strong and impossible to bypass under any circumstances. There must be no remaining loopholes for supplying Russia with critical components for its defense industry. Sanctions violations must be treated as complicity in war—those who help Russia destroy lives must be held accountable.

Although the global trend is clear – Russia will lose this war, Russia's rulers continue to deny reality. They continue to try to deceive the world, to circumvent sanctions, to produce more weapons, to ensure more resources and people are spent on this aggression... We are preparing our steps, new steps to further limit Russia's military potential. Everyone in the world who helps the terrorist state circumvent sanctions in one way or another, everyone in the world whom Russia uses for the supply of weapons, components, equipment... Each such entity must feel the full force of the free world. And we will ensure this. It is a common task of the world to stop terror. And the main prerequisite for fulfilling this task is to stop any ways in which terrorists are still trying to get something for themselves. More news to come soon.

Russia is gradually ramping up its daily attacks with Shahed drones and missiles, still using Western components to do so. In October alone, over 2,000 Shaheds were launched against Ukraine—almost every single day. Such a massive number of Shaheds requires over 170,000 individual components that should have been blocked from reaching Russia. They come from companies in China, Europe, and America—lots of small but constant contributions to Russia’s terror. This ongoing supply chain highlights, yet again, the urgent need for the world to step up export controls on special components and resources. Russia must not be allowed to circumvent sanctions that were imposed long ago in response to this war. Sanctions must increase and be effective. Every scheme to bypass sanctions is a crime against people and the world. These very schemes also enable Russia to strengthen regimes in Iran and North Korea. This is a global threat, and only global, unified pressure can overcome it.

Head of Russia is clearly taking advantage of the moment while the world is almost entirely focused on the prospect of establishing peace in the Middle East. Most countries, all key leaders, have their attention fixed on what is happening there. And this is truly a good opportunity to achieve real peace in that region after so many victims. And this is a new low in Russian depravity – to intensify terrorist strikes at a moment like this, hitting the very lives of our people. Just last night alone, nearly 500 drones were launched in multiple waves, about 200 of them “shaheds,” also 32 missiles, mostly ballistic ones. Only one response can be given to this: more strength, more air defenses to protect our critical infrastructure, and increased pressure on Russia so that they are truly held accountable for everything they do. Sanctions must be tightened – and we are discussing it with partners – and Russian assets must be fully used to strengthen our defense and ensure recovery.

Russia always knows where it is striking with its missiles and bombs—this is deliberate and targeted Russian terror. Over the course of this week, the Russians have used more than 40 missiles of various types, 750 guided aerial bombs, and 200 strike UAVs of different types against our cities and villages. For such terror, the occupier must be held accountable before the courts and history. They are already facing the strength of our warriors—all those Ukrainians who are restoring justice, destroying the occupier, and defending our positions. Defending in exactly the way necessary to preserve Ukrainian independence and achieve our goals. I am grateful to everyone who provides support and saves lives—to all rescuers, medical and utility workers, and volunteers. I thank everyone who helps our people overcome the consequences of terror.

ZELENSKYY ON IRAN: "Although Ukrainians never threatened Iran, the Iranian regime chose to become Putin's accomplice and supplied him with "shahed" drones, and not only the drones themselves, but also the technologies. Iran also provided other weapons to Russia. Over the course of this full-scale war, the Russians have used more than 57,000 shahed-type attack drones against Ukraine - against our people, against our cities, and against our energy infrastructure. Other nations have also suffered from this terror. Therefore, it is fair to give the Iranian people a chance to rid themselves of a terrorist regime - to rid themselves of it and to guarantee security for all nations that have suffered from terror originating in Iran."

Everyone sees how Russia tries to freeze Ukrainians – our people – to death at –20°C. But Russia couldn’t build any ballistic or cruise missiles without critical components from other countries. I thank every country and every company that helps Ukraine repair its energy system. This is crucial. Thank you to all who support the PURL program, helping us buy Patriot missiles. But wouldn’t it be cheaper and easier to just cut Russia off from the components it needs for missile production? Or even destroy the factories making them?

Last night and into the morning, Russians inflicted another massive terror attack on the people of Ukraine—400 drones, 18 missiles, 2 people are dead in Kyiv, dozens injured—a clear escalation of terror. An appeal to our partners: we must accelerate everything—weapons production, sanctions, pressure. Every delay costs lives. Russia must feel consequences.

This will be a busy month in Ukraine's foreign policy. I am confident that many steps will be taken to strengthen our country, our air defense, and our cooperation with partners on drones. Sanctions against Russia must also be strengthened. Both existing ones—it is critical to eliminate any circumvention schemes—and we are also working to tighten sanctions. The architecture of sanctions pressure on Russia must be strengthened. Another priority task is to bring real decisions on the use of Russian assets in Ukraine's interests closer, as well as their subsequent confiscation, in order to restore justice. The terrorist must pay for the majority of the damage caused by his terror, and Russia will pay.

Our institutions are working on the synchronization of European and Ukrainian sanctions. We are also fully aligning the European sanctions package targeting the regime in Iran, which includes numerous individuals, companies, and entities not only involved in military production and external terror schemes against neighboring countries in the region, but also in internal repression within Iran itself. It is one of the most brutal regimes in the world. No surprise that Putin found common ground with it. Global sanctions against Russia must now be one of the top priorities. They are a real tool for limiting Russia’s strategic capabilities and potential, and they must increasingly and painfully restrict Russia’s ability to continue its war against our independence. I thank everyone who is helping.

Since the start of its full-scale invasion, Russia has used over 57,000 Shahed-type drones initially supplied by Iran against Ukraine. These same drones are used by Iran against countries in the Middle East and beyond. The Iranian regime chose to become Putin’s accomplice, supplying not only drones but also the technology behind them. Iranian and Russian regimes support each other, and there is growing evidence, including Russian parts in Shahed drones, that now hit Iran’s neighbours. The Iranian people deserve a chance to rid themselves of a terrorist regime and ensure safety to all nations hit by terror originating in Iran. The world is stronger than those who seek to destabilise it. We call on our partners to act decisively.

This week alone, Russia has launched over 1,260 aerial bombs, nearly 750 attack drones, and more than 10 missiles of various types against our people. Russia’s military production, which enables such terror, relies on three key factors: sanctions evasion schemes, without which Russia would lack critical components; high oil prices, which should rightfully be lowered; and an insufficient number of our long-range missiles and drones. We are grateful to all partners who are strengthening sanctions, but more global efforts are needed to decrease Russia’s oil industry capabilities. We will continue to expand the production of our missiles and drones – and we urge all partners to invest in Ukraine’s defense industry, because these are investments in the protection of life.

All day today, efforts have been underway to eliminate the consequences of the Russian strike on our cities and communities. Various regions – from Kharkiv and Sumy to Ivano-Frankivsk. There was a massive attack on Kyiv. A significant number of “shaheds” and missiles were shot down. And every such wave of Russian strikes reminds us of two things: air defense – we need more systems, more coverage across our country – and also our long-range strikes on Russia. If Putin is off the deep end with this “shahed” obsession and terror, they must be left without logistics. Everyone working to protect lives and limit Russia’s war potential is working toward achieving peace. I also thank all partners who are pushing for new and stronger sanctions, including secondary sanctions. Let Russian bravado not deceive anyone – they are truly feeling the impact of sanctions. And they must end the aggression. Russia must end the war it started, nobody else needs this war but Russia.

Russia must feel the consequences of what it is doing. Sufficient counteraction is needed to force them to seek peace. That can be achieved with adequate strength of our army, our long-range strike capabilities, and strong sanctions and pressure against Russia. Right now, we are defending ourselves from Russian attacks almost every day. This week alone, there were more than 1,500 strike drones, over 1,280 guided aerial bombs, and 50 missiles of various types. Thousands of foreign components have been found in this weaponry – more than 132,000 items – from many countries: Europe, the United States, China, Japan, and dozens of others. All these technologies help Russia create weapons on a large scale. All for the sake of terror against our people. If Russia is not stopped, this will surely become a threat to the countries of Europe and the Indo-Pacific. Strong sanctions are an instrument that will help stop this. We must cut off all possible supply routes and means of evading sanctions, and exert pressure on the countries and individual companies that aid them. Our partners have this power – the power that must protect life. We count on the 19th EU sanctions package to be truly painful, and on the United States to join the Europeans. I thank all those who are already helping.

All night long, rescue operations continued in the Kyiv region following a Shahed drone attack. Residential buildings were damaged in Brovary and Hlevakha. Tragically, three people lost their lives. My condolences to their families and loved ones. There are also wounded who are receiving the necessary medical care. The rescue operation finished only at 9 a.m. I thank all our State Emergency Service workers, medical personnel, police officers, and everyone involved in saving lives. I also extend my gratitude to every leader and every country exerting pressure on Russia to bring this unprovoked and terrorist war to an end. In particular, there must be accountability for every component supplied in violation of sanctions and used in the production of Shahed drones and missiles. Russia would not be able to wage this war at all if its accomplices were truly restricted from supporting this terror and frontline offensives.

Russia has launched over 330 missiles of various types and approximately 600 combat drones at Ukrainian cities since the beginning of the year. To withstand such terrorist pressure, a sufficiently strong air shield is required. And this is the type of air shield we are building with our partners. We must ensure Ukraine's control over its skies, which is also critical to ensuring security on the ground—from frontline positions to hospitals and schools in the rear. Air defense and electronic warfare are our top priorities. Russian terror must be defeated—this is achievable. UNITED24 Media

Today, I signed a decree introducing a sanctions package against Russian and other individuals and entities supporting Russia’s military system. These include developers, manufacturers, and suppliers of drones for the occupiers, individuals assisting in importing critical components into Russia, as well as those training drone operators. In total, more than a hundred entities and individuals. We are actively working with our partners to synchronize these sanctions with their respective measures. It is crucial that all our partners continue to intensify sanctions pressure on Russia. Without foreign components and without schemes to bypass sanctions, Russia cannot sustain its terror campaign. Every “Shahed” drone and every Russian missile contains dozens of foreign components. That is why it is essential for our sanctions pressure to work hand in hand with the global effort.

The world needs to see that terror is losing. When Patriots in the hands of Ukrainians ensure one hundred percent downing of any Russian missiles, terror is losing. When the world increases pressure on Russia, including sanctions, when the terrorist's isolation grows, when its former partners are ashamed of any closeness with Moscow, terror is losing. And of course, there is no greater humiliation for 🇷🇺 terrorist state than the success of our warriors. No one else in the world uses weapons against evil more effectively than Ukrainians. And this is a common global task – to prevent Russia from making terror something usual to the world so that it leads to someone else catching this evil virus.

When the world increases pressure on Russia, including sanctions, when the terrorist's isolation grows, when its former partners are ashamed of any closeness with Moscow, terror is losing. And of course, there is no greater humiliation for 🇷🇺 terrorist state than the success of our warriors. No one else in the world uses weapons against evil more effectively than Ukrainians. And this is a common global task – to prevent Russia from making terror something usual to the world so that it leads to someone else catching this evil virus.
