Summary
On October 23, 2026, the Russian army conducted a widespread aerial assault across multiple locations in Ukraine using Shahed-type strike UAVs, Gerbera drones, and Parody-type decoy drones. Ukrainian air defenses reported intercepting 140 of the 176 launched drones, while 10 remained in flight as of the morning. The strikes resulted in impacts at 19 locations and falling debris at 13 additional sites. The attack caused a DTEK thermal power plant to go out of service, and civilian infrastructure in Sumy also sustained damage.
