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~

‘They’ll Regret This’: Putin Roars After 9/11-Style Attack in Kazan Hits Civilians, Warns Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning to Ukraine following a dramatic 9/11-style drone attack on Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan. The December 21 assault, involving eight drones, targeted residential buildings and an industrial facility, causing significant damage but no casualties. In response, Putin vowed harsh retaliation, promising that those responsible "will face many times greater destruction in their own country" and "will regret" their actions. He assured Tatarstan's leader, Rustam Minnikhanov, that all damages would be swiftly repaired. The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the attack was carried out in three waves using fixed-wing drones, with air defenses intercepting three and electronic warfare systems neutralizing another three. This unprecedented assault, deep within Russian territory and 1,379 kilometers from Ukraine, has escalated tensions further, drawing sharp condemnation from Moscow. #Putin #KazanAttack #KazanDroneAttack #UkraineConflict #DroneStrike #RussianRetaliation #Tatarstan #PutinWarning #Kiev #RussiaUkraineWar #IDF #TerroristAttack #RussianDefense #CiviliansUnderAttack #KazanStrike #PutinVows Also Read Drone Targets Israeli Prime Minister's House as Strikes in Gaza Result in Over 50 Casualties :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/drone-targets-israeli-prime-minister-house-gaza-strikes-011-3965047.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Downplays Drone 'Attack', States Israel Link Not Established :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-downplays-drone-attack-states-israel-link-not-established-3804551.html?ref=DMDesc Significant Missile and Drone Attack Demolishes Major Ukrainian Power Plant :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/massive-attack-destroys-ukraine-power-plant-011-3797587.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.102~HT.336~GR.125~
