Today I saw a number, which I will never forget.
During this war, Russia has launched 5628 Shahed-136 drones towards Ukraine.
That is 5628 times, civilians have heard a buzzing moped engine in the sky, and seen the Shahed-136 strike a civilian home, a power plant, or a school with its 50 kilogram warhead.
For comparison, Hitler struck London with 2857 V1 and V2 rockets — half as many.
I simply do not know what to tell future generations when they ask, why we did not stop the Russian terror.
