Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the Russian leadership will fall after the defeat of the Kremlin in the war against Ukraine.

"Kiev and all our cities, all of Ukraine, will end the history of Moscow's despotism, which has enslaved many peoples for a very long time," Zelensky said in his daily video address.

On this occasion he did not address the public from his office as usual, but on the street in front of the presidential office in Kyiv.

"Ukraine's air defense managed to almost completely repulse one of the largest Russian drone attacks since the beginning of the war," Zelensky said, adding that "Moscow tried to spoil Kiev's day."

"Kiev has survived crimes throughout its history, and it will also survive Russian attacks and will not allow the Russians to conquer it," added Zelensky.

He added that "weapons such as the Shahed drones used in the attack cannot save Russia's rulers" and that "Russia will lose the war because it despises life and culture."
