Earlier, the Poltava regional administration reported that a Russian drone attack overnight on March 27 damaged an industrial facility in the Poltava district. More than 5,000 households were left without gas.
Ukraine’s Air Force said that overnight Russia attacked with 102 drones, with air defense neutralizing 93 of them. Hits were recorded at eight locations.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
