According to UATV: During a nighttime assault on Kyiv on July 2, Yuriy Fedorenko, commander of the 429th Separate Unmanned Systems Brigade 'Achilles', revealed a disturbing pattern in Russian aggression against Ukrainians. He reported that more than 60% of the strikes were deliberately aimed at residential buildings. Fedorenko made these remarks public after analyzing the results of the attacks, highlighting a deliberate strategy of targeting civilians.
According to the commander, Russia’s primary objective is to destroy civilian infrastructure, especially homes.
“If you analyze where they struck today, over 60% were residential buildings,” Fedorenko stated.This data underscores that Russian forces are not confining their strikes to military targets, but are instead systematically attacking peaceful residents—a fact that has sparked widespread public concern.
Ongoing Danger for Ukrainians
Fedorenko also issued a warning about potential future strikes on Kyiv, Dnipro, and other populated areas. Based on his assessments, such attacks could involve between 200 and 300 missiles every three to four days. This highlights the persistent threat Ukrainians face as the war continues.
The commander stressed the urgent need to advance defensive technologies.
“That is why we will definitely continue developing our technologies, and we will certainly intensify strikes on temporarily occupied territories and deep inside the Russian Federation,” Fedorenko emphasized.This signals a firm commitment to escalating efforts to secure Ukraine’s safety.
These statements underscore the severity of the situation and the critical need for measures to protect civilians from ongoing aggression.
Fedorenko’s remarks highlight the relentless danger to Ukraine’s civilian population, as attacks on residential buildings reveal Russia’s strategic goal of destabilizing everyday life. With active hostilities ongoing, the safety of non-combatants has become even more urgent, demanding that Ukrainian authorities and military adopt new approaches to shield both people and infrastructure.
