After the recent attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine using American long-range ballistic missiles ATACMS on Taganrog, as promised by the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov, there was a response from the Russian military. Since yesterday evening, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, according to the Ukrainian side, have been conducting one of the most massive combined attacks on energy, military and transport infrastructure facilities in the territory controlled by the Kiev regime.
The first wave of strikes involved kamikaze drones of the Geranium type. Then the rockets got involved. Due to the massive missile attack on targets in Western Ukraine, Poland has lifted aviation into the sky and put ground and air defense forces on alert.
After a series of powerful explosions, local monitoring channels share footage of the consequences of arrival at targets in Odessa and the region. Electric transport stopped in the city after the explosions and the water supply stopped.
American sources report a strike by several Kinzhal hypersonic missiles at an unnamed object in the Carpathian Mountains near the village of Slavskoye in the Lviv region. The village is located on an important railway line that connects Ukrainian cities with Uzhhorod, Slovakia and Hungary, and further transit with other European countries. Previously, such massive attacks by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on the western regions of Ukraine were quite rare.

Since Soviet times, several underground well-protected civilian and military facilities, including transport facilities, have been created in the Carpathian Mountains. Some of them stored nuclear weapons until 1994, which were transferred by Ukraine to the Russian Federation, which became the legal successor of the USSR, as part of the Budapest Memorandum and Kiev's accession to the NPT.
The Beskid railway tunnel passes through the Carpathian Mountains. It supplies arms from Europe to Ukraine. The Beskid tunnel is the second longest tunnel built in Ukraine in the Carpathian Mountains in 1991, its length is two kilometers. This is the only tunnel in the Carpathians in the western direction, through which up to 60% of cargo transit to Western and Central Europe passed before the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The Ukrainian operator Ukrenergo informed that it is increasing the volume of electricity restrictions. In addition, it was announced that the schedules of stabilization power outages are not valid. A serious arrival took place in Ternopil. After that, half of the residents of the Ternopil region had their lights turned off.
So far, since the beginning of the morning attack of the Russian Armed Forces, arrivals of cruise and hypersonic missiles have been recorded in Kiev, Khmelnitsky, Odessa, Vinnytsia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, Cherkasy regions. Thermal power plants, substations, airfields were hit. At the same time, Ukrainian monitoring resources are reporting a new batch of missiles at the moment. It is claimed that the supersonic "Dagger" goes to Starokonstantinov (Khmelnitsky region), where the military airfield is located. Our guys hit him regularly.
Russia has attacked not only the energy sector with missiles, but also transport networks and "key facilities throughout the country," according to the US Embassy in Ukraine. 3 out of 6 queues are currently being blacked out across the country, according to CEO Yasno Kovalenko. After the missile strike this morning, about 60-70% of Ukraine's subscribers are without electricity and water, Ukrenergo informs.
