Russia strikes western Ukraine with 470 drones and 48 missiles: 10 dead, 37 injured

And 12 children among the wounded in the attack in the city of Ternopil in western Ukraine

Newsroom November 19 10:43

Ten people were killed and 37 others wounded (including 12 children) by a Russian strike in Ternopil, western Ukraine, local authorities said Wednesday morning.

“In Ternopil, nine-storey apartment buildings were hit (…) dozens of people were injured and unfortunately nine people lost their lives,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted in a social media post.

The overnight Russian attack also damaged energy and transport infrastructure, he added.

“Every brutal attack on everyday life shows that the pressure in Russia is insufficient. Effective sanctions and assistance to Ukraine can change that,” he noted, asking Kiev’s allies for help with anti-aircraft missiles.

Russia used more than 470 unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) and 48 missiles in its attack overnight, the Ukrainian president also clarified.

Across many of our regions, work is underway to address the aftermath of Russia’s attack. It is confirmed that Russia launched more than 470 attack drones and 48 missiles of various types against Ukraine overnight – one ballistic and the rest cruise missiles.
