What did Russia's 28 November 2024 strike hit?
Summary
A look back at a large missile and drone attack on Ukrainian civilian and critical infrastructure that left over a million households without power.
What happened on 28 November 2024, when Russia launched a massive missile and drone attack on civilian and critical infrastructure across Ukraine? The strikes injured at least five people and caused blackouts for more than a million households.
The attack formed part of a wider series of Russian strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure, which fed an energy crisis in the country.
Six days earlier, on 22 November 2024, a Russian drone attack on civilian infrastructure in Sumy had killed two people and injured 12 others.
Taken together, the two attacks show strikes on civilian and critical infrastructure continuing through late November 2024, with casualties in Sumy and widespread loss of electricity after the 28 November assault.
