On the night and morning of October 30, Russia launched a complex combined attack on Ukraine. As reported by the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russia used 705 means of air attack for the strike – 52 missiles (nine of them – “ballistic”) and 653 UAVs of various types. The Ukrainian military neutralized 592 drones and 31 missiles. According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyi, 10 regions of Ukraine were affected by the attack.
The Russian military regularly attacks Ukrainian regions with various types of weapons – attack UAVs, rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles.
The leadership of Russia denies that the Russian army during a full-scale war inflicts targeted strikes on the civilian infrastructure of the cities and villages of Ukraine, killing the civilian population and destroying hospitals, schools, kindergartens, energy and water supply facilities.
The Ukrainian authorities and international organizations qualify these strikes as war crimes of the Russian Federation and emphasize that they are purposeful in nature.
