russians may repeat large-scale missile attack on Dec 6, Ukraine’s Army Day – Air Force

russian occupation troops may launch new missile strikes on the regions of Ukraine as early as December 6, so citizens should be aware of the danger from the air.

The spokesman of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Yurii Ihnat, announced this on the air of a telethon on Suspilne.

Про це повідомив речник командування Повітряних Сил ЗСУ Юрій Ігнат в ефірі телемарафону на Суспільному.

"They can repeat it today (December 6 – ed.).

First, because of the holiday (Ukrainian Armed Forces Day – ed.).

Second, we see such trends that on October 10-11, and October 17-18, they struck one day. On the second, they struck somewhat less, but t still struck," Ihnat emphasized.

The spokesman of the Air Force Command called on Ukrainians to remember the missile threat and to act during possible new strikes "without any panic, with a cold mind."

Ihnat also recalled that the Ukrainian military destroyed more than 60 of the more than 70 launched russian missiles during the previous attack.

However, Ukraine needs more forces and means for adequate protection against threats from the air, he added.

In particular, defenders need more German Gepard, IRIS-T, and Norwegian NASAMS.

The spokesman of the Air Force expressed hope that, in particular, the US side would help Ukraine in this matter.
