Russia launched almost 90 drones against Ukraine in one of its largest attacks since the start of the full-scale invasion in 2022.
The overnight attack, which lasted for seven hours and well into Wednesday morning, mainly targeted Kyiv where more than 30 drones were shot down, according to Ukraine’s air defence forces.
It marked an escalation in Russia’s renewed offensive, which has prompted Ukrainian forces to also increase their aerial attacks on Russian targets.
Kyiv city administration head Serhiy Popko described it as “one of the most massive drone attacks on Ukraine during the entire war”, while noting that none reached their targets. Authorities said 13 houses in the Kyiv region were hit by falling debris and the rest of the drones were downed outside of residential areas.
Explosions were reported in four other Ukrainian regions — Mykolayiv, Dnipro, Sumy and Poltava.

The world is in chaos.
Sudan is in terrible shape. Gaza almost blotted off the map.
Plenty of pain.
Humans are fundamentally prune to destruction and death.
Putin and Netanyahu are jointly making the world a much more dangerous place to live. We as humanity struggle to even eliminate primitive microorganisms, so forget about eliminating your human enemy force. It just won’t happen. The only way is negotiated peace. Sometimes the most disadvantageous peace is better than the most just war. Feel free to disagree if you are fighting these wars yourself.
Rogue evil Russian state, hard at work.
At least the Russian forces and Wagner militia are dying in their lost combat in Mali and Africa. Touareg fighters actively showing the world on how to successfully diminish Russia's population.

There’s Russia making the world a more terrible place, again.
I mean every week Russia does some terrible thing.
Maybe we should just cut to the chase, and bomb Russia.
Unfortunately you may need a reminder about their nuclear stash...
