Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has reported severe conditions across multiple regions following intensified Russian strikes on critical infrastructure.
According to his shared X statement on January 11, he confirmed that attacks have disrupted electricity, heating, and water supplies during freezing winter temperatures.
He detailed a significant escalation in the volume and variety of Russian weapons used over the course of one week.
Additionally, he stated that Russia launched almost 1,100 attack drones, more than 890 guided aerial bombs, and over 50 missiles.
These included ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and the Oreshnik medium-range ballistic missile.

Will he ever be able to dance again?
Looks like the recent claims about Russia stockpiling drones for big attacks were correct.

Guilty feet have got no rhythm.

Yep, that’s the difference between “war” and “special military operation”.
When strategy is gone, only empty gestures remain. Hitler switched from airfields to cities and from fighters to V-1/V-2 rockets to project power.
Putin is the Hitler's copycat, now that strategy is gone.
Today russia fires cheap, inaccurate drones and missiles hitting Ukraine, sometimes Poland, one day its own soil.

The good thing? It will deter the West from escalating their involvement.
Amazing pitin launched massive attacks on civilians and you talk about BS entertainment crap.
You all are irredeemable
So, it’s almost over then, Russia collapsing. When does Ukraine take the rest of land back?
Yes, I’ve been following that.
They are still winning. Get used to it, Ukraine has no path to “ Victory” what so ever.Long gone are their pie in the sky dreams of reclaiming the Crimea and Russian provinces.
Lol, what the US did in Venezuela was a "special military operation", what Russia is doing is trying to conduct a war of conquest, which has become a quagmire.
The front barely moves, but russian losses don’t stop. In 2025 alone, russia lost 300,000 men and thousands of vehicles to seize 300 km² of irrelevant land.
There’s always the Odessa sea corridor.
Oh, wait.
Russia only seems capable of hitting sleeping civilian families in civilian houses in Ukraine. Thats how low and desperate Russia has sunk.
The Ukrainians on the other hand have now taken full control of the Black Sea, without a naval fleet! And they are very efficiently hitting Russian military targets (even in Moscow now, every day), deep inside Russia with Ukrainian made long distance missiles.
In the meantime... Vengeful Russia is preparing to ship nuclear missiles to the Mullahs in Islamic IRAN to help it defend itself against any Israeli - US intervention :
“Dmitry Medvedev, Russian vice president has stated that Moscow would be prepared to consider providing nuclear weapons to Iran”

The front barely moves by Russian design, try to keep up. In a war of attrition, land goes back and forth until lack of soldiers on one side leads to complete disaster for the losing side and then the land is open for the taking without dirty battles.
Ukraine supporters keep misunderstanding what’s happening. Russia is mobilizing more troops now, which Ukraine can’t do. Russia can mobilize 5 million troops if it wants. Russian citizens only gripe is that Putin isn’t being mean enough, they want him to go all out and get it over with.
Right, Putin surrenders any day now.
Zelensky is feeling so bad about beating up Russia he wants a ceasefire before Russia falls apart completely.
