Harris noted that on 26 August, Russia had carried out cowardly airstrikes on Ukrainian civilian infrastructure all day long.

All day Russia has launched its cowardly air strikes on civilian infrastructure. But they will not succeed against the iron will of the Ukrainian people. My thoughts are with those killed and injured in today’s attacks. The perpetrators must be defeated and brought to justice. — Martin Harris (@MartinHarrisOBE) August 26, 2024
