Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said last week that Kyiv estimates Russia is holding 600 ballistic missiles in reserve and can produce up to 140 ballistic missiles per month. Without ammunition for its U.S.-made Patriot air defense systems, which is in short supply, Ukraine is at the mercy of Russia’s ballistic weapons.

Pidlasa said that in the first nine months of this year Ukraine's budget lost over 49.5 billion hryvnias ($1.1 billion) in tax revenue because of Russian attacks ⁠that not only damaged property and goods, but disrupted logistics and shut shops and businesses for hours at a time.

A wave of Russian strikes hit Ukraine Monday, killing at least 7 people, including a woman hit by a daytime strike on the National Academy of Sciences in Kyiv.

Berlin's foreign intelligence chief said the country is at risk of entering a "violent conflict with Russia.

Ukrainian intelligence has documents showing ​that Vladimir Putin called for military attacks on a much broader range of civilian targets ahead of this winter, Zelenskiy told Reuters in an interview.

The Russian strikes forcing the full or partial closure of three of Kyiv’s six road bridges caused traffic logjams and appeared to be a new tactic in its campaign to torment the city’s residents. Previously, Russia has hit apartment blocks, supermarket warehouses, gas stations and data centers, among other targets, in an escalation of attacks.
