Nema milosti za Kijev: Stanovnici beže iz grada u plamenu

‼️BREAKING || RUSSIA UNLEASHES 70-PLUS MISSILE BARRAGE ON UKRAINE — KYIV HIT BY REPEATED BALLISTIC SALVOS AS AIR DEFENCE STRUGGLES Kyiv — Russian missiles were continuing to pour into Ukraine early Wednesday in one of the heaviest combined attacks of recent weeks, with Kyiv subjected to repeated concentrated ballistic salvos and explosions reported across the Ukrainian capital. More than 70 missiles of various types were reported involved in the attack, according to preliminary monitoring estimates, with ballistic, hypersonic and cruise missiles approaching from several directions. At one stage, monitoring data indicated at least 15 ballistic missiles arriving towards Kyiv within roughly 15 minutes. Ukrainian reporting from inside the city described missiles and explosions coming virtually one after another. A Kyiv Independent journalist counted more than a dozen explosions during the opening barrage. The intensity and concentration of the attack appeared designed to saturate Kyiv’s air-defence network. At least two people have been killed in Kyiv. Hits, fires and falling debris were reported across Darnytskyi, Obolon, Podil and Shevchenkivskyi. Warehouses and industrial structures were among the locations reported hit. Videos from Kyiv shows a large sustained orange fire burning behind the city skyline, with thick smoke rising above the impact area. Another clip captures the sky suddenly glowing orange as a brilliant, steep luminous trail cuts through the frame above rooftops The footage conveys the extraordinary intensity of the Russian attack on the city. Another video shows a very different, human-suffering side of the same night: a Kyiv metro station effectively converted into an overnight shelter. Tents line the platform alongside sleeping bags, blankets and mattresses, with ordinary people lying down beside the tracks during the prolonged missile alert. This video gives the story a useful contrast — the violence above ground and an almost entire underground town waiting out the deadly awe overhead. Dnipro was also struck. Regional authorities confirmed that a Russian attack damaged an industrial enterprise, while further cruise missiles were subsequently reported approaching the city. In Zaporizhzhia, Russian forces struck a transport infrastructure facility. Regional authorities warned that sections of the road network could be temporarily closed as a result of the damage. The attack map looks less like a conventional missile raid than a saturation diagram. Tracks converge on central Ukraine from the north-east, east and south, with Kyiv and Dnipro sitting beneath overlapping approach corridors. The mixture shown by AMK Mapping — ballistic missiles, Kh-101s, Kalibrs, Zircons and several other missile families — creates the visual impression of successive layers arriving in constant waves. The most striking feature is Kyiv: the routes appear to funnel towards the Ukrainian capital from several widely separated launch axes, forcing what is left of Ukraine’s depleted air defence to deal simultaneously with weapons travelling at very different speeds, altitudes and trajectories. That is precisely the geometry that makes a concentrated mixed-missile attack difficult to defend against. The map is a picture of utter saturation and awe-inspiring scale, with more than 70 missiles arriving in repeated groups and converging on a small number of target areas, while Kyiv receives particularly dense attention. — Bloomberg Whistleblower (@bloombergbell) October 7, 2026
