Russia has launched a huge strike on Ukraine’s energy facilities and military infrastructure, Russian news agencies report, citing the Ministry of Defence.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday said Russian forces launched about 120 missiles and 90 drones in a “massive” combined air attack – one of the largest barrages of the near-three-year war.

A Russian drone attack on the southern Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv killed at least two people and wounded six others, including children, Zelenskyy said, adding that “all areas” were left without power.

Explosions were heard across Ukraine on Sunday, including the capital, Kyiv, the key southern port of Odesa, and the country’s west and central regions, according to local reports.

    Oh shit I didn’t see this and I was just speculating they might escalate again tit for tat.

    They really just need to negotiate terms of giving up the Donbas region instead of continuing this pointless unwinnable war and feeding more and more kids to the meat grinder.

    Sure Russia isn’t socialist anymore but at least its government isn’t propped up by a military that seemingly cannot be photographed without a bunch of Nazi symbols present.
