The Ukrainian army expects all regions of its country to be bombarded with Kinzhal-type hypersonic missiles. There would be Russian planes in the sky. There may also be drone strikes in the central regions of Ukraine.
In the early hours of Friday morning, air raid sirens were sounded all over Ukraine. There would have been explosions in some areas. A train derailed in Crimea on Thursday (see video above), but no one was injured. According to official information from Kiev, anti-aircraft systems are in use. The army fears that all regions could be hit with hypersonic missiles.
The Patriot’s anti-aircraft system, which was damaged in combat, is said to be fully operational again. “What I can confirm is that a Patriot system was damaged, but it has now been repaired and is fully operational again,” Pentagon spokeswoman Sabrina Singh said in Washington on Thursday. According to Russian information, the army destroyed the battery in Kiev. In an attack on Tuesday, five launch ramps were destroyed in addition to the battery’s radar guidance system.
Zelenskyj praised troops
The Ukrainian army continues to receive systems of Western production, including the American Patriots, which are considered the most modern weapons in anti-aircraft defense. Recent Russian attacks have also mainly targeted them.
Ukrainian troops were again successful at Bakhmut in the east of the country. “On the one hand, the defense brigades did a good job, they fulfilled the most important strategic tasks. And the offensive brigades are doing well,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his daily video address on Thursday evening.
He gave no details about the combat operations and further steps. In any case, the air force and anti-aircraft defenses have done an “excellent job” in protecting the civilian population. Additional air defense systems would therefore have priority. In addition, additional missiles, training and aircraft must be placed, as well as long-range weapons.
