Ukraine ready to hit Russian energy, defence sectors after Kyiv attack: Zelensky

Ukraine has the right to launch retaliatory strikes against Russia's oil industry and defence sector following a massive Russian attack on Kyiv earlier this week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Friday.

"We are entirely justified in our responses against Russia's oil industry, military production, and those directly responsible for committing war crimes against Ukraine and Ukrainians," Zelensky said in a post on X.
