"The stronger our air defense will be, the less Russian devils will be both in the sky and on the ground": Zelenskyy congratulated Ukrainians on Christmas and named the task for 2024

On December 25, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy congratulated Ukrainians on the Christmas holiday. The Head of State also spoke about the successes of our defenders at the front, which set the right mood for the holiday for Ukrainians.

He posted the greetings on his social media page. The President also thanked Ukrainian defenders for their accuracy and strength.

"Christmas Eve during the war. Our soldiers shot down not only almost 30 "Shaheds" and several missiles, but also two more Russian "Su".

In just a week, terrorists have minus 5 aircraft. This Christmas sets the right mood for the whole next year - the mood of our opportunities. Opportunities in negotiations with partners. Opportunities to strengthen our air shield. Opportunities in defending our home from Russian terrorists. The stronger our air defense is, the less Russian devils will be in our skies and on our land.

I thank all our soldiers for their accuracy and strength! Thank you to each and every one of you who cares about the defense of our country on Christmas and on weekdays, who withstands enemy attacks and shows steadfastness no matter where they are: in the east and south or on the borders of our country, who are in combat and on the ground, who rescue and treat people. All our emergency services. Everyone who helps. Thanks to all of you!

Merry Christmas, dear Ukrainians! May this bright time make the whole next year brighter for us," the post  says.
