President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to save the energy system this winter, in particular, by successfully repelling Russian missile and drone attacks.

"Every night, every day there are new Russian terrorist attacks: missiles and drones. We shoot down a significant part. So far there have been many hits. But it is already January 31. The energy situation is fundamentally different from last winter. The system has been preserved. We are providing Ukrainians with energy. We ensure and constantly strengthen the protection of energy facilities," he said in a video message on Wednesday evening.

Also, according to the president, Ukraine continues to strengthen its "air shield."

At the same time, Zelensky ysaid that "there is still a lot to go through this winter, and there will still be Russian terrorist attacks, and the Russians will try to break our defense, however, we are aware of the threat."

The head of state thanked all the soldiers who defend the state and are on combat duty every day.
