Overnight, Russia carried out the largest ever ballistic missile attack since the beginning of the war, targeting Kyiv.
According to preliminary figures, the following was used:
~ 38 Iskander-M ballistic missiles.
~ 6 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles.
Despite launching at least 16 (recently recieved) Patriot PAC-3 interceptors, only a couple of the ~44 missiles were shot down. The vast majority impacted their targets, resulting in large fires breaking out.

CENTCOM confirmed earlier today that 2 U.S. soldiers were killed, and another is missing (likely also killed) when Iranian ballistic missiles struck a barracks at a U.S. base in Jordan.
Four other soldiers were injured and medically evacuated, but have since been discharged, while other personnel suffered minor injuries.

My twitter for you is trolling at this point.
It is a tragedy that soldiers and civilians are being killed in this needless war.

One of the targets of last night's Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile and Zircon hypersonic cruise missile strikes was the Artem Defence Plant in Kyiv.
As usual, the Lukyanivska Metro Station across the street was damaged by the blast waves. NASA FIRMS recorded a large fire burning at the Artem Plant.
