Ukrainian authorities reported waves of Russian airstrikes across the country Tuesday, from east to west, including attacks in Kyiv that struck residential buildings and, elsewhere, attacks on energy facilities that knocked out power.
The barrage of strikes came as air raid alerts were issued across Ukraine. They followed what have been days of euphoria in Ukraine after one of its biggest military successes so far of the nearly nine-month Russian invasion — the retaking last week of the southern city of Kherson.

This week it gets cold in the Ukraine.
Winter has arrived.
Let the EU deal with it. It’s their war, not ours.

Apparently, neither does Ukraine.

Besides, why does Russia need to control the skies when missiles can do all that any aircraft can do WITHOUT and loss of Russian pilots or aircraft? :duh:
“Why risk a $50M aircraft when you can send a $10K drone?”
Exactly!
and what, exactly, does Russia hope to achieve with these missile strikes?
I know you did not just ask that?
Seriously?!
did you just avoid the question again?
seriously?!
Are you okay? Why do you think the strikes are conducted during war?
you tell us
