Russian drones hit Ukraine thousands of times as winter approaches

Ukrainian military reports show that Russian Forces launched over 2k attack-drones at various targets across the country in Oct-2024‚ continuing their long-standing offensive that started bout two-and-half years ago

The capital city faced significant pressure as local officials confirm that Kyiv endured 20 separate attacks during the past month; defense systems managed to intercept 1‚185 drones while 738 were lost due to technical issues or other factors

Since the start of this year Ukrainian Armed Forces have dealt with nearly 7k enemy UAVs targeting the nations infrastructure (primarily focused on civilian objects and critical facilities). The most-recent overnight assault resulted in residential building damage across multiple regions: including a fire-station hit in Odesa

  • Power facilities
  • Residential buildings
  • Emergency service stations
  • Critical infrastructure objects

Russian Military Command keeps insisting their strikes only target legitimate military-related objects — but evidence shows otherwise. As cold weather sets in Ukrainian authorities are getting ready for possible power-cuts similar to those experienced in early-2024 when energy systems took major hits
