Abstract
- Russia has launched a major missile and drone attack on Ukraine's critical infrastructure, with two-thirds of the missiles being shot down by air defense. The attack consisted of 53 missiles and 47 explosive-laden drones, with 18 missiles successfully evading Ukraine's air defense. The targets included energy facilities in various regions of Ukraine, causing critical damage to equipment. This is the sixth attack on power facilities in the past two and a half months. The Russian defense ministry claims that the attacks were in response to Ukraine's efforts to damage Russian energy and transportation facilities. At least 19 people were injured in the attacks.
