Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned of a potential massive Russian attack on the evening of June 2, following overnight strikes that resulted in 22 fatalities and 130 injuries nationwide. Zelensky cited intelligence reports indicating the possibility of further large-scale assaults, urging citizens to heed air raid alerts. He revealed that over 70 missiles and 650 drones were deployed in the preceding overnight attacks, with an additional 100 drones used throughout June 2. Zelensky highlighted the insufficiency of current air defense supplies to intercept a significant portion of incoming missiles and appealed to international partners for continued support in providing air defense systems, missiles, intelligence, and other life-saving resources.
