Russia plans to 'exhaust' Ukraine with prolonged attacks says Volodymyr Zelensky

Ukraine's president says Russia is planning a protracted campaign of drone attacks in a bid to demoralise Ukraine.

Volodymyr Zelensky said he had received intelligence reports suggesting that Moscow would launch the attacks using Iranian-made Shahed drones.

It comes after Ukraine carried out a strike that it said killed 400 Russian soldiers in the Donbas region.

In an extremely rare admission of battlefield losses, Russia said the attack killed 63 of its troops.

Russian drone strikes on Ukraine appear to have increased in recent days.
