In the early morning hours of 29 December 2023, Russia launched what was seen to be the largest wave of missiles and drones yet seen in the Russo-Ukrainian War, with hundreds of missiles and drones hitting the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and other cities across the country. At least 58 people were reported to have been killed in the attacks, while 160 others were injured. [2]

Attack

Overview

According to Ukrainian officials at least 122 cruise and ballistic missiles and 36 drones were launched, killing at least 58 people and injuring more than 160 [1] in an overnight nationwide attack [3] [4] that lasted up to 18 hours. [5] The Ukrainian Air Force claimed to have intercepted 87 missiles and 27 drones. No Kh-22s were intercepted. [6] Eighteen strategic bombers, [7] including nine Tu-95MS aircraft from Olenya airbase in Murmansk Oblast were also believed to have been used in carrying out the attacks, while some of the missiles were believed to have been launched from Kursk Oblast. [8] During the attack Kh-101s were seen deploying decoy flares. [9]

The attack targeted cities across Ukraine, including Dnipro, Kharkiv, Konotop, Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa, and Zaporizhzhia, in what was possibly the largest aerial attack of the Russian invasion thus far. [10] [11] Ukrainian Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat said that [11] "we have never seen so many targets on our monitors at once." Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the attacks destroyed or damaged over 100 private houses, along with 45 multi-story buildings, schools, two churches, hospitals, maternity wards, and numerous commercial and warehouse establishments. [3]

The Economist reported that a source in Ukraine's defence industry indicated Russia had mainly targeted defence facilities, including those for missile and drone production, saying "The attacks had strategic meaning for the enemy, with the aim of reducing our capacity to strike ... It's a battle to see who can destroy more of the enemy's long-range weapons." [12]

A spokesperson of the Russian Ministry of Defence said that "all the designated military targets have been hit". [13] At the United Nations Security Council, Russian ambassador Vasily Nebenzya attributed Ukrainian casualties to Ukrainian air defenses. [7]

Incursion into Poland

According to General Wiesław Kukuła, Chief of General Staff of the Polish Army and the Polish Army's Operational Command, one of the missiles entered Polish airspace from Ukraine near Zamość for approximately three minutes before it "turned back" for Ukrainian airspace, adding that it had travelled about 40 kilometers over the country. [28] [3] The governor of Lublin Voivodeship said that the projectile appeared on radars near Hrubieszów, which hosts a border crossing with Ukraine. [29] Ordash later said that Russia would not provide an explanation over the incident until it received "concrete evidence" that the missile was theirs. [30]

About 200 police officers were deployed to the area where the missile flew over to retrieve possible debris. [28] while four Polish and American F-16 fighter jets, as well as an air tanker were scrambled from Polish airbases due to activities of long-range Russian aircraft. The Polish foreign ministry also summoned the Russian chargé d'affaires Andrei Ordash over the incident. [31]

Aftermath

In his address that evening, Zelenskyy praised the country's air defenses for their efforts to stop the attacks and pledged to strengthen them. [3]

Days of mourning were declared in Zaporizhzhia, Dnipro, and Odesa for 30 December, while the mayor of Kyiv, Vitaly Klitschko, said that a day of mourning would be held in the city on 1 January 2024. [2]

In response to the entry of the Russian missile, Polish prime minister Donald Tusk met with president Andrzej Duda and the country's defense and military leadership. Duda later said that there was “no threat at the moment” and nothing to suggest that ”anything bad” could happen in relation to the incident. US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan spoke with the head of the Polish National Security Bureau Jacek Siewiera, to express Washington’s “solidarity with Poland”. [29]

An estimate by Ekonomichna Pravda put the cost of the Russian attack at $1.273 billion. [32]

Reactions

Ukrainian foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba said that the attacks were a wake-up call for those debating on continuing support for the country. [5]

At an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council, assistant secretary-general Mohammad Khiari called the attacks "appalling". UN Secretary-General António Guterres also said he condemned Russia’s attacks “in the strongest terms” and called on them to end. [5]

U.S. president Joe Biden said that the attacks highlighted the need to stop Russian president Vladimir Putin and urged the United States Congress to pass a proposed military aid package to Ukraine that had been stalled in the legislature. UK prime minister Rishi Sunak said that the attacks underscored Putin's aims to "eradicate freedom and democracy", and urged continued support for Ukraine "for as long as it takes". [5] The UK government said it was sending 200 air defence missiles to protect civilians and infrastructure. [33]
