 "attack on the capital" and added that additional rockets had been shot down by air defenses. After urging world leaders to exert more pressure on Russia to put an end to the conflict in Ukraine through a peace plan during a virtual address at the G20 summit in Indonesia, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky launched the strikes on Tuesday. Zelensky declared, "We will not allow Russia to wait it out and strengthen its military. "I am convinced that now is the time to put a halt to Russia's conflict, and it can be."
