Russia Launches Massive Missile and Drone Attacks on Ukraine

On November 8th, Ukraine faced a devastating wave of missile and drone attacks, resulting in at least six fatalities and extensive damage to energy infrastructure. The assault targeted twenty-five locations, including Kyiv, leaving many without electricity and heating as winter approaches. Russia launched over four hundred and fifty exploding bomber drones and forty-five missiles, with Ukraines air force reporting successful interceptions. The Ukrainian Energy Ministry confirmed power outages but stated that restoration work is ongoing, with critical infrastructure facilities already reconnected. These attacks come amidst U.S. decision to grant Hungary a one-year exemption from Russian oil and gas restrictions, a move criticized by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who advocates for no exceptions to Western sanctions on Russian energy.
