On Monday, Ukraine’s Air Force Command said Russia launched a record 90 drone attacks on New Year’s Eve. “A year ago, on New Year’s Eve, the defenders of the sky destroyed 45 ‘Shaheds.’ Today 87 Shaheds were destroyed,” Ukraine Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk said in a Telegram post. Russian shelling hours into the new year on Monday killed at least five people and wounded 22. The shelling killed four people and wounded 13, according to Denis Pushilin, the Russian-installed head of the self-declared Donetsk People’s Republic. And remember: without each and every one of you, Ukraine will be incomplete.”
