On the night of March 22, the enemy carried out a massive missile and UAV attack on the territory of Ukraine - the occupants hit both infrastructure and residential buildings, using a large number of missiles along with drones.

The former Deputy Chief of the AFU General Staff, Lieutenant General Ihor Romanenko, told Apostrophe TV why the enemy returned to last year's tactics and what we should pay attention to.

He emphasizes that these massive missile strikes show the Kremlin's intentions to take advantage of the pause in the supply of Western military aid to Ukraine:

"The current massive missile strikes have shown that the Kremlin is trying to act actively to take advantage of the pause in the supply of Western military aid to Ukraine, primarily from the United States."

He also recalls the last attack on Kyiv, pointing out that then the enemy's targets were "decision making centers," while today the occupants intended to strike at infrastructure facilities:

"If last time the main targets were certain locations in Kyiv (presumably decision making centers), this time they hit infrastructure facilities throughout the country with ballistic missiles, which are harder to intercept."

Romanenko notes that this tactic is not new:

"They returned to the tactics of last year, when the occupants used their strikes against the population in order to leave them without electricity, water and heat. We need to prepare for the fact that such tactics will continue."

The former Deputy Chief of the General Staff emphasizes that Russians have all the capabilities to launch such massive missile strikes and it is important to realize this.

"They have in stock about 900 missiles of various types, including cruise and ballistic missiles. They can produce up to 100 different missiles per month," he comments, noting that Ukraine should focus on countermeasures: "We need to focus on how to shoot down these missiles."

He points out that it is necessary to rationally assess our capabilities and not to "harbor illusions."

"There is no need to harbor illusions that they may 'run out' of missiles and other weapons. No, they won't, at least because Russia is a bigger country, and they have a lot more. They will fight as long as this terrorist regime exists."

Earlier, we reported that Russia's missile strikes caused power outages in Ukraine.
