Russia launched 39 ballistic missiles and 120 drones on Ukraine energy and critical infrastructure
Situation Overview
On the night of 13 October 2026, Russia carried out an attack using 39 ballistic missiles and more than 120 strike drones and loitering munitions against Ukraine’s energy and critical infrastructure in Kyiv, Kyiv region and Kharkiv. The attack targeted energy infrastructure, and the post links it to a US presidential determination of a ceasefire for energy-related strikes. The same post describes the strike as deliberate and large-scale, and says at least 600,000 people were affected, without providing further verified details. No additional confirmed steps, deadlines, or scheduled responses are stated in the available report.
