2024-08-27 | @SiliconWafers | Largest Kyiv Attack Since 22 Shows Putin’s Impotent Rage & Violence.
2024-08-27 | Civilians has been killed and injured as Russia launches a large-scale attack on Ukraine for second night, on 27th August 2024. According to the Ukrainian Air Force, this was possibly the largest attack on Ukraine since start of full-scale invasion. Russia launched 127 projectiles and 109 drones, while Ukraine downed 102 projectiles and 99 drones, estimated the Air Force. Russian strikes hit several civilian, energy, and fuel facilities, including a dam in Kyiv, part of the Kyiv Hydroelectric Power Plant, more on that in a minute.

Seven people were killed and 47 were injured, according to the State Emergency Service and this attack was spread over a huge territory, with Russian forces striking targets in 15 oblasts, according to Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal. Russia is using an approach that combines many types of offensive weapons – likely because this what they have, but also because the mixture creates a harder task for Ukrainina air defences. One Kinzhal ballistic, one Iskander-M/KN-23 ballistic, one Kh-22 cruise, 99 Kh-101, Kalibr, and Kh-59/69 cruise, as well as 99 Shahed-type drones.
You’ll notice that I avoid using the ‘M’ word I here, because there is some evidence that the algorithm does not approve of that word, or the violent reality that it represents. Scanning the media reports, there is some coverage, but nearly as much as would be expected from such a serious event. Some commentators have slipped in the ad hoc analysis that this attack was ‘revenge’ for the Kursk incursions. But no Ukrainian analysts have expressed this view. Rather, they point out, that Russia’s behaviour has been consistent for 2 and a half years now. Where it can attack, it does.
Where air defences are shown to be weak Russia attacks hardest, and where it can take out crucial energy and power-generating infrastructure, it goes after that. The behaviour has not changed, and the target has not changed. Only the intensity varies, and that is usually timed in a symbolic way after key holidays such as New Year and Ukrainian Independence Day which has just passed. Rather than revenge, this is the mindset of an abusive ex-partner that tries to excerpt his ‘ownership’ over an abused spouse, even though he has no legal or moral right to do so.
