The third year of Russia’s all-out invasion of Ukraine saw Russia scale up its aerial campaign against civilians, resulting in a record-high spike in civilian targeting and an increased civilian death toll. But analyzing just direct Russian attacks that led to deaths or injuries reveals only a part of the grim reality for civilians living in Ukraine. This report extends the discussion on the war’s impact on civilians by analyzing over 5,500 events targeting civilian infrastructure, tracked withnewly introduced ACLED tags. These data reveal a pattern of indiscriminate strikes on residential houses, medical facilities, educational institutions, and the energy sector across Ukraine. Russia’s attacks on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine inflict increasingly severe hardships on civilians, making Ukraine ever more dependent on external support and complicating ongoing and future recovery efforts.

Russia unleashed one of its largest missile and drone attacks on Ukraine in recent weeks overnight, targeting the capital Kyiv and several other regions, killing at least 13 people and injuring more than 50, according to Ukrainian authorities, while Moscow said the strikes were retaliation for recent Ukrainian attacks on Russian civilian infrastructure.
The overnight barrage involved a combination of long-range cruise missiles, ballistic missiles and hundreds of attack drones, triggering explosions across Kyiv and forcing thousands of residents to seek shelter in metro stations and underground bunkers.
Residential buildings, civilian infrastructure, and other facilities were damaged as emergency crews worked through the rubble searching for survivors.
According to the Russian Defence Ministry, the operation used “high-precision” weapons launched from air, land, and sea, along with drones.
In a statement posted on Telegram, Moscow claimed it targeted Ukrainian military-industrial facilities, energy infrastructure around Kyiv, and military airfields in the Poltava and Dnipropetrovsk regions.

According to data from the Ukrainian Air Force command, a total of 68 missiles of various types and more than 350 drones (including decoy drones) were launched against Ukraine.

The attacks point to a disturbing change in tactics: The Kremlin may be refining a new model of strikes on Ukrainian cities, relying on concentrated salvos of ballistic and hypersonic missiles to inflict maximum damage as Ukraine faces a growing shortage of Patriot interceptors.

As Russia's Ukraine invasion unravels, Putin escalates attacks on civilians
Russia launched a major bombardment of cities across Ukraine early on June 2, leaving over one hundred civilians dead or wounded. The attack, which focused primarily on Kyiv and Dnipro, was the most recent in a series of
deadly overnight bombing raids
beginning in early May that have signaled a new phase in Kremlin efforts to target Ukraine’s civilian population amid mounting indications that Russia’s invasion is stalling on the battlefield.
The latest Russian aerial attack lasted throughout the night and featured 656 drones along with 73 missiles,
according
to Ukrainian Air Force officials. Significantly, this included more than thirty ballistic missiles, making it one of the largest ballistic bombardments of the entire war.
While Ukraine has developed effective air defense strategies to counter Russian drones and cruise missiles, Kyiv remains heavily dependent on US-made Patriot air defense systems to defend against ballistic missiles. However, Ukraine is known to be currently running short of the expensive interceptor missiles used by the Patriot system. Russian dictator Vladimir Putin apparently intend…
