As a reminder, recently the Kyiv City Military Administration told us how many missiles and drones Russia has fired at Kyiv in 1000 days of war.

 

 

 

In addition, we reported how much Russia has spent on shelling Odesa over 1000 days of war. This money could have been used to build about forty hospitals with 800 beds each in Russia itself.
