The New York Times, citing a Russian document allegedly intercepted by Ukraine, reports that Russia intends to use up to 1,000 drones, missiles, and glide-bombs against Ukrainian energy and water infrastructure in winter, especially in Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa. Russia will also reportedly target the electrical switchyards at the Rivne, Khmelnytskyi, and South-Ukraine Nuclear Power Plants.

In Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa, Russia reportedly plans to cut electricity and heating by 90%, while causing significant disruption to their water sewerage system. The strike campaign will reportedly take place in three stages, starting with targeting electrical substation near the western borders of Ukraine used to transfer European-supplies electricity, before moving to hydro-electric power plants, and then targeting nuclear power plants at the end.

In my opinion, 1,000 missiles, drones, and glide-bombs is a massive undercount. According to available information, Russia has over 12,000 Geran-2 drones in reserve, a portion of which they will likely use during the winter for strikes on energy targets. I believe that when counting drones, missiles, and glide-bombs, Russia could use up to 10,000 munitions (mainly Geran-2/4 drones) to attack energy infrastructure.

Large traffic jams are seen in Kyiv this morning following the temporary closure of the "Patona" and "South" Bridges, and partial closure of the "Metro" Bridge, due to repeated overnight Russian Geran-4/5 jet-drone strikes.

Due to the latest Ukrainian counterattacks in Kramatorsk direction, the frontline, after being as close as 3 kilometres from Kramatorsk, is now 8 kilometres away.

The city will likely not be entered for now.

Missile to Mykolaiv City from the east. Unknown type.

Explosion in Mykolaiv. Likely a Tornado-S rocket.

Another explosion in Mykolaiv. Geran-4/5 jet-drone strike.

Ukrainian farmers in frontline regions have begun attaching anti-drone cages to their equipment to prevent being struck by Russian FPV drones.

A Russian Geran-4/5 jet-drone struck the "Northern" Bridge across the Dnieper River in Kyiv just now.

In a new statement, the Russian Ministry of Defence announced targeting the "Northern" Road Bridge across the Dnieper River in Kyiv, which they say is used for transporting troops and logistics to the frontline.

They also claim to have struck the "Hostomel" logistics centre in the city of Hostomel, which allegedly stores military equipment.

Furthermore, the MoD claims that a dry cargo ship was struck in the northwestern Black Sea, as it was allegedly transporting dual-purpose cargo to Odesa Port for the Ukrainian military.

The "Northern" Bridge in Kyiv has been closed to traffic in both directions following this morning's Russian Geran-4/5 jet-drone strike.

Large traffic jams have formed in parts of Kyiv as a result.
