Russia is preparing for trilateral talks by launching ballistic missiles at Ukraine’s critical infrastructure. Repair and rescue operations are underway in the affected regions wherever the security situation allows. In total, the Russians used 172 drones and 36 ballistic missiles, with all the missiles aimed at Kyiv and the surrounding region. Energy infrastructure was once again the main target. The capital is facing serious difficulties with its electricity, water, and heat supplies. Residential buildings and the Northern Bridge were damaged. A kindergarten was partially destroyed. In the Kyiv region, a substation connecting the Rivne and Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plants to Kyiv and Ukraine’s central regions was hit. Substations were also damaged in the Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Rivne, Kharkiv, and Dnipro regions. In addition to Kyiv, twelve other regions came under attack. Nine people were injured, including one child. I thank all our people who defend the country against this terror every day, work to restore what has been damaged, and do everything they can to get Ukraine through the winter. But when Russia is trying to plunge Kyiv – a city of millions – and the entire country into a blackout, Ukraine must not be left alone. We are counting on increased bilateral support from the United States. We are counting on the U.S. Congress to give more attention to Ukraine, because Russia keeps increasing the number of its attacks. It is important that support for Ukraine remains among the priorities of U.S. policy. We are counting on both parties to stand united on matters of security, support for Ukraine, condemnation of Russian aggression, and increased sanctions pressure on Putin. America’s resolve and consistency in supporting Ukraine are crucial in bringing peace closer. @ZelenskyyUa

Russia has lost nearly $298 billion worth of military equipment in its war against Ukraine. Having failed to subjugate Ukraine on the battlefield, Moscow is relying more and more on a far cheaper weapon in Europe: sabotage. About 200 Russia-linked sabotage incidents have been recorded across Europe since 2022, according to Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence Service, and more than 170 perpetrators have been identified. Recruiting an operative can cost Russian handlers just hundreds or thousands of dollars. The price Europe pays is far higher: arson, disrupted infrastructure, and security budgets stretched to cover new threats. Read more: armyinform.com.ua/en/2026/11…
