The enemy is now aiming at the airport, the third time has already been struck. Fortunately, according to preliminary information, there are no victims.

The enemy wants to sow additional panic, so he beats Western Ukraine, beats Western cities because they understand that today Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, and Ternopil region are the rear of Ukraine, where many people move, so they want to sow more panic."
