❗️Apocalyptic scenes from Kyiv. A night of terror and fire that no one should ever endure.
This is not just another strike. This is Russia’s ongoing campaign of terror against civilians — deliberate, relentless, and merciless.

Usual response from NATO & European countries. Due to Russia's large missile & strike drone attack on Ukraine this morning, Poland said it scrambled military aircraft & took the dust sheets off its air defences. Jets will aimlessly fly around for a bit & land due to boredom. x.com/DowOperSZ/st...

As soon as the temperature in Ukraine goes down, russian psychos attack our energy grid again.
It's Аnother attempt to leave Ukrainians with no power, heat, and water in the dead of winter.
⚠️ Kinzhal, Kalibr, Kh-101 missiles are all over Ukraine at the moment.

⚠️ Ukraine's energy infrastructure is under a Russian missile attack. Strikes hit the Burshtyn TPP (Ivano-Frankivsk region), causing increased power outages across the country. Emergency blackouts also in Kyiv—schedules suspended.

Kyiv. The subway is used as a shelter.

The full-scale invasion day 1,000th.
We owe everything we have to a Ukrainan soldier - who’s tired, unwilling, outnumbered, and outgunned, sensing grief and injustice - yet who keeps doing the terrible job every single day to save the world.

It's hard to believe
On day one, we thought we'd hold maybe 3 days, maybe one week.
But our people, our warriors, our partners' support, our determination, and faith brought us here.
Many tears, deaths, and losses later, Ukraine holds.

North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un has ordered North Korean defense industrial enterprises to begin serial production of likely tactical strike drones – an example of how increasing Russian-North Korean military cooperation allows North Korea to learn from Russia's war in Ukraine.
