Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia is trying to divide Ukraine along the Dnipro River (and “along the Dnieper”) by targeting infrastructure. He links the alleged effort to Russian attacks on bridges and the power grid, saying these actions are aimed at separating parts of the country and disrupting daily life for civilians.
Several outlets frame the claim in the context of Ukraine’s broader wartime resilience. Ukrainska Pravda describes Zelenskyy’s view that such strikes are intended to disrupt civilian life across regions along the Dnipro. Kyiv Post adds that Zelenskyy pledges state resources to support frontline areas and urges implementation of resilience plans, while also noting a separate diplomatic development: Ukraine’s negotiating team arrives in Abu Dhabi ahead of talks involving the US and Russia.
