Zelenskyy's evening address Defence and sea attacks

Oct 6

Hrynchuk introduces Zelenskyy's evening warning, then airs his complete address. Zelenskyy says his Staff meeting ordered expanded electronic-warfare protection for critical infrastructure and tasks for manufacturers, the Defence Ministry and Armed Forces; he also mentions next-year long-range planning. He says two civilian vessels were attacked overnight in Bulgarian waters, one sank and one was badly damaged. He denies Ukrainian operations there, says Bulgarian naval contacts established a combined Russian sea/air-drone attack and orders cooperation with partners. He recalls a prior Romanian-water vessel attack and Russian drones entering Moldova, urging a clear response. He then warns of updated intelligence about a possible massive strike and asks Ukrainians to heed alerts, stressing that Ukraine's response is constrained by available systems and partners' political will. Responsibility, verification and preparedness claims remain attributed to Zelenskyy.

Zelenskyy says updated intelligence indicates Russian preparation for a possible massive strike and urges Ukrainians to heed alerts. TSN reports his October 6 defensive coordination call and ballistic-interceptor shortages. His evening address says readiness depends on available protection and partners' willingness to supply it. This is a warning, not evidence that the forecast strike occurred.
