Bloody Monday
Today marks the bloodiest missile strike on Kyiv so far this year.
You never know when the next attack is coming.
It was a typical Monday morning. The city was buzzing with activity. There was a limited drone attack during the night, but it was long over.
Suddenly, all hell breaks loose. 40+ missiles from all directions converged on Kyiv almost simultaneously.
The combined attack included various types of missiles. Ship and submarine-launched Kalibr cruise missiles, Kh-101 cruise missiles launched by strategic aviation, land-based ballistic Iskanders, air-launched aeroballistic Kinzhals, and even a hypersonic Zircon.
Explosions shook my apartment building. I briefly glanced outside to see a couple of anti-aircraft missiles rising to the sky to intercept another ballistic threat.
When the explosions were over, I saw black smoke over the city. This Monday is harder than usual.
Today, a ruzzian missile hit the biggest child hospital in Ukraine. The surfaced video clearly shows a ruzzian Kh-101 missile flying unintercepted right into one of the hospital complex buildings. Which means it hit exactly where it was programmed to hit. So there is actually a person who entered the coordinates of a child’s hospital into the missile computer.
Not only that, but a couple of hours later, the next wave of missiles hit another part of the city. One missile hit a reproductive clinic, killing 9 people inside, including patients and medical personnel. This definitely demonstrates that strikes on medical facilities are not accidental, but deliberate.
Other parts of the city were also hit. Another missile blew up a section of an apartment building. So now, emergency services and volunteers are cleaning up the rubble of the collapsed structure, looking for survivors.
Today, I am more pessimistic than ever. A daylight strike in the rush hour to increase the number of victims shows yet another escalation from the ruzzian side. The end of the war is nowhere to be seen and it just spreads and becomes more violent.
