IQN (NewsDesk): Russia has vowed to intensify its strikes on Ukraine following a recent interview given by President Volodymyr Zelensky, signaling a further escalation in an already punishing campaign of attacks against Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.
The warning comes as German Chancellor Friedrich Merz visited Kyiv to pledge further military and energy sector aid, with air raid sirens and explosions sounding across the capital during his trip, underscoring the scale of ongoing Russian bombardment even as Western allies continue stepping up their support for Ukraine’s defense.
Details of what specifically in Zelensky’s interview prompted Moscow’s warning were not immediately disclosed, though the threatened escalation adds further urgency to Ukraine’s push for continued international backing, including the drone production partnership and energy sector repair funding Merz is expected to finalize during his visit.
