Russia’s Attacks Leave 2,185 Ukrainian Heritage Sites and 2,686 Cultural Institutions Damaged or Destroyed

Ukraine continues to face an acute need for additional air-defense systems and Patriot interceptor missiles as Russia maintains large-scale strikes on cities, energy facilities, and other civilian infrastructure. In October, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Ukraine faced a severe shortage of PAC-2 and PAC-3 interceptors, with available supplies insufficient to meet the pace of Russian missile attacks.

Russia has repeatedly struck civilian facilities tied to Ukraine’s food supply. In October, a Russian attack hit a poultry farm in the Kyiv region housing around 16,000 birds, sparking a fire that emergency crews later extinguished while rescuing most of the animals.
