Russia attacked Ukraine with 250-300 drones and missiles: details of the night shelling

Massive attack by Russian troops

According to Главком: On the night of January 5, Russian troops carried out a massive attack on the territory of Ukraine, particularly in Chernihiv, Kyiv, and Kharkiv. The attack was executed using drones and missiles, leading to serious consequences.

According to information, between 250 and 300 unmanned aerial vehicles and up to 10 ballistic missiles were used during the shelling. Among the drones used were about 4 reactive UAVs of the 'Geran-3' type. The main targets of the attack were:

• military-industrial complex;
• energy infrastructure;
• oil and gas infrastructure.

As a result of the night shelling, one person was killed, and three others were injured. This attack marked another stage in the escalation of the conflict and a confirmation of the threat that exists to the civilian population in Ukraine.

Russia's strategy in waging war

Massive attacks on critically important infrastructure highlight Russia's strategy in waging war, aimed at destabilizing Ukraine and exacerbating the humanitarian crisis. The Ukrainian government and international observers condemn these actions, which violate international humanitarian law. Such escalations may lead to even greater tensions in the region and trigger new sanctions from Western countries.
