Following a massive night drone attack, Russia bombards Kyiv with ballistic missiles.

On the morning of October 7, Russian forces launched three X-47M2 Kinzhal ballistic missiles toward the city of Starokostyantyniv, Khmelnytskyi region, and Kyiv. Two missiles were shot down by Ukrainian air defense. Earlier that night, the Russian army attacked Ukraine with kamikaze drones and rockets of various types. In total, more than 80 targets were recorded in the sky. 32 attack UAVs were shot down. However, several Shahed drones hit the Kharkiv region near the front. The last ballistic missile hit the airfield in Starokostyantyniv.

At the same time, an oil depot with 32 tanks caught fire in Crimea near Feodosia after a Ukrainian drone attack. This is the largest oil depot in Crimea in terms of petroleum product transshipment, with a tank volume of 250,000 cubic meters.

In turn, Ukrainian intelligence, using an FPV drone, destroyed a Russian Soviet-era Osa automated air defense system worth $10M. This air defense system is unique because it combines all air defense components on one mobile platform, allowing it to act autonomously and move quickly.
