Russian Nighttime Mass Attacks on Ukraine: F16 Shot Down, Three Civilians Injured, Poland Scrambles Jets!
The night was hell for Ukraine! Russia launched a massive missile and drone attack across multiple Ukrainian regions, including areas far from the front lines. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that during the defense, one F16 was damaged — marking the third such loss in the war. Tragically, pilot Lieutenant Colonel Maksym Ustymenko, a hero who shot down seven enemy targets, died as his plane lost altitude.
Russian strikes did not spare civilian targets. At least three people were injured in the Cherkasy region, while industrial and other infrastructure in Kremenchuk and Zaporizhzhia were hit, causing fires. In Lviv, Russian attempts to hit critical infrastructure mostly failed, but explosions and alarms continued. Poland responded by scrambling fighter jets and activating air defense units.
Ukrainian forces struck back, hitting four Russian Su-34 bombers at the Marinovka airbase in Volgograd region, further escalating tensions. Polish President Andrzej Duda visited Kyiv, expressing strong support for Ukraine in its fight.
This escalation comes as peace talks between Russia and Ukraine remain stalled, while Russian attacks intensify, targeting both military and civilian sites. Ukraine fights not only for territory but for the survival of its people and infrastructure, as Russia continues brutal tactics that spark outrage and fear worldwide.
Will the West manage to provide Ukraine with enough weapons and support to stop this aggression? Or will the world watch the conflict deepen while innocents pay the price? Share your thoughts — this isn’t just a war far away; it’s a test of our collective conscience and courage.
