There is still a threat of additional ballistic missile launches for another hour or so.

Updated movements:

29-30 Kh-101s
9 Kalibrs.

Most of the Kh-101s are flying to Poltava/Kremenchuk.

Some are flying to Kyiv.

One new group has entered Sumy Obalst via Putvyl.

Kalibrs are flying to Kirovohrad Oblast.

40 Kh-101 cruise missiles are expected in total, so 10 more will likely enter soon.

33 Kh-101s are detected; 9 Kalibrs.

Updated missile movements.

The first Kh-101s are approaching Kyiv from the east.

NASA FIRMS data shows that large fires are burning at the Mayak Defence Plant in northern Kyiv following 2 Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strikes.

The Mayak Plant has been hit before, and is reportedly involved in the production of components for drones.

Making the Ukraine environmentally friendly again 😁

Summer in Crimea Kiev was this the plan? 😁

Ropcke, the armchair general.

A drone factory in Kyiv destroyed by a Russian ballistic missile on Friday was owned by a US corporation registered in Delaware, in what appears to be the first time Moscow has targeted a US company in the conflict.

Terminal Autonomy makes precision “deep-strike” drones with guidance systems that are resistant to Russian jamming signals, according to a person familiar with the company.

The company did not reply to an emailed request for comment. The Ukrainian defence ministry also did not respond to an email.

Anthony Vinci, a former senior US intelligence officer, said: “The Russians don’t care who owns the manufacturing facility. It’s still a target. They don’t care if it’s American or someone else’s.”

He added: “I do think if Patriot missiles or any American system was manufactured in Ukraine, I think the Russians would target that manufacturing facility.”

-----------------------

Keep in mind, the numbers of missiles launched may be slightly higher than what I've listed, as the number of missiles detected is sometimes lower than actual launches. These numbers may be adjusted in the coming hours as more information comes available.

Clarifications on tonight's missile figures:

52 Kh-101 cruise missiles were launched, not 48.
4 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles were launched, not 3.

Therefore, we have an updated total of 83 missiles launched.

Last night Russia launched a total of 52 Kh-101 cruise missiles at Ukraine, using 6 Tu-95MS strategic bombers and 3 modernised Tu-160M strategic bombers.

This is the largest number of Kh-101 missiles launched in a single night since December 13, 2024, and by far the largest since Ukraine's Operation Spiderweb attacks on Russian strategic aviation on June 1, 2025.

President Volodymyr Zelensky told Axios in an interview on Tuesday, that he asked US President Donald Trump for an emergency “winter package” of Patriot air defense interceptors to help thwart Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

“We needed the Patriots yesterday,” Zelensky said, seeking 300 of them by winter.

According to Axios, Ukraine’s stockpiles of the interceptors have been almost depleted, and without them the country cannot defend itself against Russian ballistic missiles – the reason Ukraine could not stop recent Russian attacks on Kyiv, Zelensky said.

If the problem is not solved by winter, Russian missile attacks could destroy Ukraine’s power plants, shutting off heating for millions of Ukrainians and creating a humanitarian crisis.

We have a new record

Remember when this was considered Russian propaganda? Remember how so-called pro-Ukrainians doxxed me for saying EXACTLY THIS?

I've been saying this for years.

This is a war of attrition, where you prioritise destroying your enemy's capability to fight over forcing advances on the frontline.
