Russia launched a drone attack on Ukraine that injured seven people in the Black Sea port of Odesa, two of them children, and also targeted Kyiv, the capital, Ukraine's military officials said early on Tuesday.
Several residential buildings in the city were damaged and caught fire, the governor of the Odesa region, Oleh Kiper, said on the Telegram messaging app.
At least 14 apartments were damaged, the city administration added.
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.

In a bold statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin hailed the Oreshnik ballistic missile as a “game-changer” in Russia’s defense capabilities, following its successful use in a strike on a Ukrainian weapons manufacturing facility in Kazan. Putin emphasized that the missile, capable of reaching speeds up to Mach 10, represents a significant leap in missile technology, showcasing Russia’s advancement in hypersonic warfare. The missile's deployment has raised alarms globally, as it is touted as virtually impossible to intercept by even the most advanced Western air defense systems. Putin’s remarks underscore Russia’s growing military might and serve as a stark warning to the West about the evolving balance of power in global defense.

In a decisive and powerful strike, Russian forces have targeted and destroyed a German-made Leopard tank, along with several other key military assets, in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region. Using kamikaze drones, the Russian military identified the Leopard tank through reconnaissance UAVs before launching a series of devastating drone attacks. The tank was seen engulfed in flames as it was struck multiple times. In addition to the Leopard tank, two more tanks, an M113 APC, and two pickup trucks were eliminated. Russian forces also neutralized five Soviet-made D30 howitzers and four U.S.-made M101 and M119 howitzers. This destruction occurred during a failed Ukrainian counter-attack, leading to significant losses for Kyiv in an ongoing battle for control in the region.

Amid escalating tensions on the frontlines, Russia’s ongoing military campaign has left Ukraine’s defense forces vulnerable, forcing them to make desperate decisions in the face of mounting casualties. In a critical move, Ukraine has been compelled to redeploy its skilled air defense specialists to infantry positions due to severe manpower shortages. This reallocation of personnel has left key defense systems weakened, with some air defense units operating at less than half their full capacity. Meanwhile, Ukraine is sending untrained soldiers to fight on deadly frontlines, raising concerns about their ability to effectively counter Russian advances. As casualties rise and desertion rates climb, Ukraine’s military is under intense pressure to hold the line, but its ability to maintain security and defensive strength is rapidly being tested.
