Russia launched 188 drones against most regions of Ukraine in a nighttime blitz, the Ukrainian air force said Tuesday, describing it as a record number of drones deployed in a single attack.

Most of the drones were intercepted, according to the air force, but apartment buildings and critical infrastructure such as the national power grid were damaged. No casualties were immediately reported in the 17 targeted regions.

Russia has been hammering civilian areas of Ukraine with increasingly heavy drone, missile and glide bomb attacks since the middle of the year.

At the same time, Russia’s army has largely held the battlefield initiative for the past year and has been pushing hard in the eastern Donetsk region where it is making significant tactical advances, according to Western military analysts.

But the important thing is that “Ukraine is winning”. LOL

Any one remember what happened in the middle of the year? Ukraine cancelled elections.

In a related story, Democrats said Harris-Walz was winning. And so it goes.

And Putin who died from cancer last year is just about to be overthrown, and the Russian are using rusty WWII rifles & tanks, and they are almost out of shells & missiles and they have to take Viagra to rape Ukrainian women, & like a million of them have died with almost no Ukrainian losses, and their soldiers are demoralized and forced to stay at the front at gun point and the Ghost of Ukraine has shot down half their Airforce & mostly some of the silliest propaganda I have ever read

Most of the drones were intercepted...by their targets and destroyed.

Drones, you say? The Chicoms know all about combat drone swarms.

This summary is very 'upsetting', for being incomplete. You left out the crucial "shovels" and "chips from washing machines," without which the Narrative® is full and truly recapitulated.

And, by the way, bravo and best wishes.

Predictions of future warfare? Drone armies, navies and air forces?

By law they can’t have elections during martial law, this isn’t the first time that has come into effect for them.
