The Southern Air Command of Ukraine reported on December 25 that air defense forces had destroyed 11 enemy targets in the Kherson region. Among the destroyed targets was a Russian cruise missile.
Tensions between Russia and Ukraine continue. In southwestern Ukraine, a volunteer organization called "Black Tulips" conducted search operations in a forest near Dolyna to locate the remains of missing soldiers. Explosive materials were also discovered during the searches.
In Kryvyi Rih, a ballistic missile strike resulted in one death and 15 injuries. Rescuers continue to search for survivors among the rubble.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Moscow launched large-scale attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, targeting it with 70 missiles and over 100 drones.
Earlier, Ukrainian UAVs attacked the Urus-Martan, Shalinsky, and Staropromyslovsky districts of Grozny. These districts are only 5–10 km away from Grozny airport.
Additionally, the Southern Air Command of Ukraine confirmed that air defense forces had successfully destroyed 11 enemy targets in the Kherson region, including a Russian cruise missile. It is worth noting that Russia began its invasion in February 2022, claiming to annex the Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions of Ukraine.
U.S. President Joe Biden condemned these attacks and called on the Department of Defense to continue increasing arms supplies to Ukraine. According to Biden, these attacks aim to deprive the Ukrainian people of access to heating and electricity.
Since the beginning of the war, Washington has allocated $175 billion in aid to Ukraine. However, whether this support will continue under the newly elected President Donald Trump remains uncertain. Trump has stated his intention to end the war quickly.
