NEW: Russia killed at least 21 civilians, including children, and damaged civilian infrastructure and European diplomatic facilities during the second largest strike of the war thus far and the largest strike since the August 15 Alaska Summit on the night of August 27 to 28. More⬇️(1/3)
The August 27 to 28 strike series, which was the largest since the August 15 US-Russia summit in Alaska, supports ISW's assessment that Russia used the lead-up to the Alaska summit to stockpile drones and missiles, launching fewer and smaller strikes to present itself to the US administration as a good-faith negotiator.
Russia is likely to escalate strikes against Ukraine in the coming weeks to take advantage of the missile and drone stockpile it accrued in the weeks leading up to Alaska, and appears to be resuming its wider campaign to target Ukraine's infrastructure before the fall and winter to undermine Ukraine's will to continue fighting against Russian aggression.
Russian strike packages will likely continue to inflict civilian casualties as Russia scales up the size and type of munitions in its strike packages.
