Tell me about the war in Ukraine.

With the opening of Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 as scheduled, Yiwu small commodities, the richest oil-producing country in the Middle East and frequent unpopular events have become hot topics on domestic social media. However, also in the northern hemisphere, the war between Russia and Ukraine continues. For the Ukrainian people, the most painful thing is that under the new round of Russian long-range missile attacks, winter has just arrived, and they will face the suffering of water and electricity cuts. Sure enough, the joys and sorrows between people are different.

165438+1On October 23rd, the Russian army dispatched its air-based Tu -95 bomber, sea-based frigate and land-based "iskander -K" cruise missile launching equipment to carry out high-intensity attacks on Ukrainian energy and other basic systems. Afterwards, the Russian Ministry of Defence said that its strike target was perfectly completed, and all the established targets were destroyed, which led to the interruption of railway transportation in Ukraine to transport troops, foreign weapons, military equipment and ammunition to the war zone. On the other hand, the Ukrainian power grid company announced on the 23rd that the whole territory of Ukraine will be blacked out due to the attack. The government of Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, also said that the city suspended the supply of tap water due to insufficient energy supply. The deadliest news came from Ukraine's Ministry of Energy, which claimed on the night of 23rd that Russian missile attacks caused all nuclear power plants in Ukraine, as well as most thermal and hydroelectric power stations to stop working. Due to the serious damage this time, it is expected that the recovery time will be long. During this period, the Ukrainian people need to cope with the high latitude winter in the northern hemisphere in the case of lack of electricity, water and heat.

From other aspects, after the missile attack, the proportion of internet connections in the capitals of Ukraine's major States plummeted, with most of them plummeting by more than 80%, and the recovery was not completed in the next few hours. This is something that has never happened before. It shows that Ukraine's energy supply system has been hit hard and can no longer be restored by standby energy and emergency repair. In Ukraine, big cities are queuing everywhere to buy gas and water. Compared with the enthusiastic attention of other parts of the world to Qatar, it highlights the cruelty of war. In addition, the Russian army has been attacking Ukraine's energy and infrastructure for a long time, but this time it showed extremely rare ultra-high efficiency and caused unprecedented blackouts throughout Ukraine. The story here is worth pondering.

▲ It has become the norm to queue up for refueling after the outbreak of war in Ukraine.

According to the news of the Ukrainian General Staff, the Ukrainian air defense forces performed well on the day of the attack, successfully shooting down 51KH-10, Kh-555 cruise missiles and five Russian-made "The Lancet" cruise missiles. Only 19 missile failed to intercept, and the successful interception rate was as high as 72.86%. This is an unconvincing interception ratio, especially in the context of power outages throughout Ukraine, which is even more unbelievable to the outside world. In fact, the tactics displayed by the Russian army this time are very good, and the strike efficiency is much higher than before, which may become the norm in the future. Specifically, the Russian army mainly uses space-based cruise missiles, supplemented by sea-based and land-based missiles, and implements three-dimensional strikes. Regardless of the specific interception figures for the time being, it did eventually cause a devastating blow to different regions in a short time. This rare efficiency may be attributed to the effective summary of theater information and tactical planning after the establishment of the Russian Front Command.

Secondly, a few days ago, the Ukrainian army publicly displayed the wreckage of a Russian Kh-55 missile it discovered. The missile originally used for nuclear attack was removed from the nuclear warhead and replaced with a simulated warhead that would not explode, and was finally intercepted by Ukrainian air defense forces. When the Ukrainian "Defense Express" website and other media reported this incident, social media launched a heated discussion. One view is that Russian missile stocks are about to run out, so that the simulated missiles used in the exercise are launched into Ukraine in chaos. Another view is that Kh-55 belongs to the backward eliminated model in the Russian army, and its application window is particularly narrow, so it is unlikely to be a misfire. It is more like the Russian army using this old-fashioned equipment to consume the inventory of Ukrainian air defense missiles and strengthen the strike effect of real missiles. This view was supported by the US "TheDrive" website and other media, and was confirmed in a new round of Russian attacks on the 23rd.

Finally, this round of Russian missile attacks rarely involves suicide drones. In the past few months, Iran Shahd-136 has become the center of the Russian-Ukrainian war topic for many times, and this controversial military trade is also full of all kinds of oddities. At first, the US Department of Defense broke the news that Iran would provide drones to Russia, but it was refuted by Iran. Soon after, the Russian army began to use drones that had never appeared before, and it was quickly recognized as the standard equipment of the Iranian army. Especially since June 5438+065438+ 10, Iran Shahd-136 suicide drones have been widely used, which has made Iranian drones famous. In the end, Iran said that the drone had reached a deal before the war and completely settled the transaction between the two parties. Recently, it was reported that Russia began to build a drone production line with the assistance of Iran. Due to the limited transportation capacity of both sides, this will inevitably affect the delivery of the whole drone, which may be the reason why the Russian army has used Iranian drones less recently, but the proportion of drones will further increase in the future.

After this round of missile attacks, the US government quickly announced a new round of military assistance of 400 million US dollars. In addition to some basic ammunition, it is mainly concentrated on "Hippo" rockets and air defense weapons, which is considered to be the main means for the United States to boost the morale of the Ukrainian army after the Russian missile attack. In fact, during the nine-month war, the United States has provided nearly $20 billion worth of military assistance to Ukraine. This figure sounds not low, but compared with the national wealth lost by Ukraine in the war and the debts to be repaid after the war, it is only nine Niu Yi Mao. Over the past eight years, NATO, led by the United States, has constantly provoked relations between Ukraine and Russia, which eventually led to war. However, it only paid a part of the military aid, which made the two peoples who fought side by side decades ago meet, and the loss of personnel and wealth was difficult to replace. It's really embarrassing.
