He urged people to immediately go to shelters when sirens sound.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a fresh warning Saturday evening, urging citizens to take air-raid warnings seriously tonight. According to the president, Ukrainian intelligence shows Russia is preparing another large-scale strike using missiles and drones, and people should proceed to shelters immediately when sirens sound.
As The Zioneer reported at 20:02 Jerusalem earlier Saturday, Zelensky had already warned of an imminent massive Russian offensive. The new statement, delivered on Saturday at 22:22 Jerusalem time, adds a specific plea for vigilance in the immediate hours ahead. This follows a series of escalatory exchanges this week: On Thursday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov threatened massive strikes against Ukrainian military targets, and Ukraine launched an unprecedented drone attack on Moscow with nearly 200 UAVs, which Zelensky framed as a response to a Russian strike on Kyiv. On Friday, Zelensky issued Belarus a one-week ultimatum to remove strike-coordination equipment from the border.
The warning is based on a single source and details of the expected attack — timing, targets, and scope — remain unconfirmed.
