Putin’s Revenge Blitz: 100+ Drones Hit Ukrainian Cities a Day After Deadly 9/11 Style Kazan Attack

Russian President Vladimir Putin escalated the war with a revenge-driven drone assault on Ukraine, launching more than 100 drones on December 22, a day after Ukraine struck high-rise buildings in Kazan, Russia. The attack targeted multiple Ukrainian cities, including Kyiv, Kherson, Mykolayiv, and Zaporizhzhya, causing significant damage to businesses and apartment buildings. Ukrainian air defenses managed to intercept 52 of the 103 drones, preventing casualties, though the strikes intensified fears of further infrastructure destruction. This deadly retaliation comes after a devastating attack in Kazan, Russia, on December 21, where Ukrainian forces targeted the capital of Tatarstan, marking a notable escalation in the conflict. #PutinsRevengeBlitz #UkraineDroneAttack #RussiaVsUkraine #KazanAttack #PutinRetaliation #KazanStrike #UkrainianCitiesUnderAttack #RussiaEscalatesWar #UkrainianAirDefenses #WinterWar #PutinSendsMessage #UkraineResilience #RussianDroneAssault #UkraineUnderFire #WarTensions ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.103~GR.121~
