Summary
Overnight attacks from November 7 to 8 combined drones and missiles against Ukraine, hitting energy infrastructure and causing widespread power and heating outages, including in Kyiv, Dnipro and Zhytomyr regions. Reports give differing drone and missile totals and interception figures, and the claimed number of drones downed varies between accounts. One person was reported dead and eight injured. Russia's Defense Ministry said it struck the Northern Bridge, a plant producing Flamingo cruise missiles, an electricity substation in Zhytomyr and a cargo vessel in the Black Sea. Debris from downed targets fell at nine locations, and hits were recorded at 23 to 31 sites depending on the account. Russia also claimed to have shot down 50 Ukrainian drones in a day across several regions.
