The aggressor State of russia continues its terror, violence and killing of people and destruction of Ukraine's civilian infrastructure.

In the early morning hours of Sunday 17 November, Russia launched a massive combined strike on Ukrainian territory.

Here's What We Know

According to President Zelenskyy (Volodymyr Zelenskyy), Russian terrorists used almost their entire arsenal of missiles. Thus, about 120 cruise, ballistic and aeroballistic missiles were fired at the objects of civil and energy infrastructure: "Zircon", "Iskander" and "Kinzhal". In addition, 90 drones were used.

Ukrainian air defence forces shot down most of the aerial targets, but unfortunately there were missile hits and falling debris. Thus, in Nikolaev two people were killed and six wounded, among them two children. Many cities in Ukraine are experiencing power, water and heating outages.

102 missiles out of 120 and 42 out of 90 UAVs (210 aerial targets) were shot down:

  • 1 3M22 Zircon hypersonic ship-to-ship missile (shot down);
  • 8 Kh-47M2 Dagger aeroballistic missiles (7 shot down);
  • 101 Kh-101, Kalibr cruise missiles (85 shot down);
  • 1 Iskander-M ballistic missile (not shot down);
  • 4 Kh-22/X-31P cruise/anti-radar missiles (all shot down);
  • 5 Kh-59/X-69 guided missiles (all shot down);
  • 90 attack UAVs/drones of unknown type - 42 shot down, 41 UAVs locally lost in different regions of Ukraine, two more flew towards Russia and temporarily occupied territory.

This is what peace enforcement looks like in Russian - destroy everything their missiles reach.
