Russia Launched A Mass Drone Attack On Kharkiv

by Tommy Grant

Kyiv’s military claims that its air defenses shot down 71 of 145 drones launched by Russia at targets across Ukraine during a mass drone attack. Ukraine also lost track of an additional 71 drones likely due to active electronic warfare.

At least 23 people were injured in the missile strikes on Kharkiv and Odesa, as Russia’s military forces launched one of their largest drone attacks since invading Ukraine. This may have been a retaliation for the use of long-range missiles to strike Russian soil, although that was not specifically stated as a provocation by Russia.

Forty buildings were also damaged in the missile attack and at least ten people were wounded in a separate missile strike on Odesa. Ukraine, meanwhile, said it attacked an oil depot in Russia’s western Kaluga region, along with targets in Bryansk and Kursk, according to a report by The Independent.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Ukrainian forces are retreating in Kursk. On Monday, the WSJ further reported that hostilities in the Russian region had reached an intensity unseen in most other parts of the front line. The publication claimed that, in recent weeks, Moscow’s forces had retaken nearly half the territory it lost to Kiev’s military earlier this year.

Russian forces are advancing non-stop, with the upper hand in terms of manpower and weaponry according to multiple reports. Ukraine does not have much of a chance at “winning” this war if war ever creates winners. Ukraine’s morale is also destroyed as conscription efforts ramp up and more civilians attempt to escape their enslavement by the regime.
