Breaking: Russia Launches Massive Strike on Ukraine on December 25 Morning
In a brazen display of aggression, the Russian military has unleashed a broad attack on Ukraine, with the entire country on high alert. "Ukrainian Truth" reports that air-raid sirens are echoing across all regions as residents brace for impact.
The Ukrainian Air Force has confirmed that the assault began with Russian forces firing Kalibr missiles from the Black Sea, unleashing multiple ballistic missile strikes, and deploying several Tu-95MS strategic bombers. This coordinated onslaught also includes the use of strike drones, according to reports.
Russia’s primary targets appear to be Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, with Energy Minister German Galushchenko confirming the attacks. In response, "Ukrenergo" has announced electricity consumption restrictions across the country.
Harrowing details are emerging from Харьков (Kharkiv), where at least seven ballistic missiles have reportedly struck. Oleh Synegubov, head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, confirmed several fires and casualties, including injuries in the Sалтівський (Saltiv) district. Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov later updated the death toll, reporting one fatality after a private house was hit in the Nemyshlianskyi district.
The city of Київ (Kyiv) also found itself in the crosshairs. With the air-raid sirens wailing at 5:30 AM local time (6:30 AM Moscow time), residents hastily sought shelter in the metro system.
This developing situation will continue to unfold, and further updates will be provided as they become available.
