Russian Bombardment Kills 22, Cuts Power to Thousands in Ukraine | Honolulu Star-Advertiser
Ukraine said Russia fired 656 drones and 73 missiles, overwhelming air defenses and cutting power to 140,000 residents.
- On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported Russia launched 73 missiles and 656 drones overnight, striking Kyiv and Dnipro after a Monday night attack killed at least 22 people.
- Russia is capitalizing on global air defense shortages, specifically Patriot interceptor missiles, as the United States military depleted stockpiles during its war on Iran.
- Defense Department reports show the United States used more than 1300 Patriot interceptors in the war on Iran, while Zelenskyy recently repeated requests to President Donald Trump for more Patriot missiles.
- Tens of thousands of residents sought shelter in the Kyiv subway system during the nighttime raid, as Ukraine was already facing a shortage of Patriot missiles before the war on Iran exacerbated supply issues.
- Trump has ceased direct weapons transfers to Ukraine since the start of his second term; consequently, European allies are purchasing defense interceptors from the United States before sending them to Ukraine.
