Ukraine faced heavy air strikes from Russia, targeting its two largest cities, resulting in the death of at least five civilians and numerous injuries. The attacks caused significant damage and disrupted power supplies in Kyiv and Kharkiv.

The Interior Ministry of Ukraine reported 135 people injured in the recent missile and drone assaults. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy emphasized ongoing rescue operations amid widespread destruction. The attacks intensified over the New Year period, prompting calls for increased military assistance from the West.

Russia’s President Vladimir Putin warned of retaliation for a Ukrainian air strike on the Russian city of Belgorod, claiming the lives of 25 civilians. In response, Russia intensified its attacks on Ukraine, causing further casualties and damage.

In Kyiv, a high-rise residential building suffered significant damage, resulting in the death of an elderly woman and injuries to 49 people. Similar casualties occurred in Kharkiv, where a 91-year-old woman lost her life in a missile strike, and dozens were wounded. Attacks around Kyiv claimed the lives of a married couple.

President Zelenskiy vowed that Russia would be held accountable for every life lost in the conflict. He reported that Russia deployed almost 300 missiles and over 200 drones in the past three days, with trajectories calculated for maximum destruction.

Ukraine’s air defense successfully intercepted several incoming missiles, but Zelenskiy stressed the need for increased support. Political delays in the U.S. and the European Union have hindered over $110 billion in aid for Ukraine.

Zelenskiy discussed upgrading Ukraine’s air defense systems with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Western leaders emphasized the urgency of providing more support to Ukraine, acknowledging the effectiveness of its air defense but urging further assistance.

The attacks damaged gas pipelines in Kyiv, causing disruptions in electricity and water supply. Kharkiv also faced damages to heating and water supplies. The situation revived memories of the previous winter when air strikes on the energy grid led to frequent power cuts.

As the conflict enters its second anniversary, Russia holds significant territories in eastern and southern Ukraine, with no apparent resolution in sight. The war persists, with Ukraine relying on military and financial support from its allies.
