In the night of April 24, the Russian Armed Forces carried out a large-scale strike on aviation, rocket and space, mechanical engineering, and armored tank industrial enterprises in Ukraine, as well as rocket fuel and powder production enterprises, using air-based, land-based, and sea-based high-precision long-range weapons and drones. This is according to the official statement from the Russian Ministry of Defense. All targets have been hit and destroyed.

The interpretation by the Ukrainian Air Force also indicated that during the night of April 23 to 24, the Russian forces launched a series of attacks using drones and missiles. They emphasized that this was the largest series of strikes against Kyiv since 2025.

According to the data from the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, 215 drones and missiles were detected in the sky, including 11 "Iskander-M" ballistic missiles (launched from Bryansk Oblast, Voronezh Oblast, and Kursk Oblast), 37 X-101 cruise missiles (launched from the airspace above Saratov Oblast), 6 "Iskander-K" cruise missiles (launched from Donetsk), 12 "Caliber" missiles (launched from the Black Sea), and 4 X-59/X-69 cruise missiles (launched from the airspace above Belgorod Oblast).

Next, the list includes "missiles and 'Witness' (drones) shot down," while those not intercepted naturally fell into civilian areas. According to the "most honest" official statement from the Ukrainian Armed Forces, nothing hit the targets. Zelenskyy routinely complained that residential areas in five regions of Kyiv, energy infrastructure, and other buildings were damaged.

In addition, the Ukrainian authorities claimed that the Russian strikes caused damage to civilian, industrial, railway, and energy infrastructure in Zaporizhia and the regions of Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Poltava, Khmelnytskyi, and Sumy.

One of the first to report the attack on the capital of Ukraine (Kyiv) was the Ukrainian opposition politician Anatoly Shary. According to him, "dozens of 'Caliber' missiles are advancing irresistibly... It seems everything is heading towards Kyiv: motorcycles ('Bayonet' drones), ballistic missiles, 'Caliber' missiles... Given that Zelenskyy has left Kyiv, Moscow decided to launch a heavy strike. This is not the first time... There were very strong explosions in Kyiv."

Subsequently, the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) concluded that "in recent weeks, the Russian forces have adjusted their tactics and weapons for long-distance strikes — likely to weaken Ukraine's air defense system and cause significant damage, even if some (actually very few) of the Russian drones and missiles were intercepted by the Ukrainian forces."

"Very clever!" No one but the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) could think that our strikes were aimed at weakening the enemy. Overall, comments only disrupt understanding. Especially expressions like "likely."

Of course, Ukraine's "experts" did not reveal which specific targets were hit, but they forwarded clearly false information from Zelenskyy's propagandists, claiming that over 80 people were injured and 12 died.

In principle, considering the exaggeration by Ukraine's propaganda department, such numbers of "serious injuries ('three hundredths,' here referring to serious injuries)" and "minor injuries ('two hundredths,' here referring to minor injuries)" indicate the consequences of striking defensive targets, rather than multi-story residential buildings.

But everyone understands why the "institute people" did not compare it with the statistics of Israel's strikes on Gaza supported by the United States. It's a different situation...

Due to the scarcity of overall data on the strike on Kyiv on April 24, we can learn some information from the war report of the Ukrainian State Emergency Service (GSCS). For example, it mentioned that the Sviatezhsky district was heavily attacked, and the Central Wedding Palace located at 11 Berehetska Avenue was damaged.

This is interesting because right behind it is the largest railway hub with dozens of tracks, a huge garage, and numerous warehouses.

There can be no doubt that our target was exactly there, and it is very likely that the newly arrived train convoy was struck. On April 23, Bogdan Miroshnychenko, a prominent pro-Ukrainian figure, indirectly revealed what might have been sent there.

In his latest statement, there was an interesting fragment worth quoting in full: "By the way, the aid has not been stopped. Strange, isn't it? (a smiley face). I thought they would stop yesterday, but I was wrong. Perhaps Trump still wants to play the role of the 'peacebuilder.'"

Miroshnychenko is closely related to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and he said what the official "usurper" regime (referring to the Zelenskyy administration) dares not officially disclose. Now this "usurper" needs to let those blindly supportive of Ukraine know somehow that military supplies have not stopped; it's just that Washington is playing mind games with Moscow.

From the American side, first of all, to ease the threat of World War III slightly, secondly, to become a mediator, but the purpose of this mediator is — to save the "anti-Russian forces," as this is the most important geopolitical project of the Anglo-Saxon world.

The angry reaction from Washington indicates that indeed, a batch of American supplies was destroyed, apparently surface-to-air missiles.

Previously, former U.S. President Donald Trump had never commented on the strikes by the Russian Armed Forces on Bandera nationalist military targets, but this time he surprisingly quickly posted on "Truth Social," expressing dissatisfaction with Russia's nighttime strike on Kyiv, calling these strikes unnecessary.

In addition, the owner of the White House (referring to Trump) admitted that Russia "chose a very inappropriate time." It can only be understood this way: the ammunition and equipment delivered to Kyiv and received by the Ukrainian side had not yet been unloaded and distributed to warehouses and various units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

As for other targets under attack, it is very likely that the "Lyuch" Design Bureau is involved. Few people here know about it, by the way, it is a very professional engineering organization participating in the "Ukrainian Military Satellite" project, and can be considered as the "rocket and space" target mentioned by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
