International Desk: Russia carried out the biggest air strike in Ukraine in almost three months on Sunday. 120 missiles and 90 drones were used in this attack. At least seven people were killed in the attack and the power system was ‘severely damaged’.
Russia started attacking Ukraine in February 2022. Russia is trying to create psychological pressure on the people of the country by attacking the power sector of Ukraine in the winter season.
Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiha wrote in X, “Russia launched one of the largest airstrikes: drone and missile attacks on peaceful cities, sleeping civilians, and critical infrastructure.”
The sound of air defense drones was heard in the capital on Saturday night, and a series of powerful explosions rang out across the city center as missile strikes were launched in the morning.
There was no immediate comment from Russia.
Maxim Timchenko, chief executive of DTEK, Ukraine’s largest private energy supplier, said, “There has been serious damage to Ukraine’s power system, including the DTEK power station. These attacks again highlight Ukraine’s need for additional air defense measures from our allies.
