On the afternoon of December 31, the Russian army launched rocket attacks on Ukraine. Rockets hit civilian targets in Kyiv, Khmelnytskyi, Mykolaiv, and Zaporizhzhia. The Russian army launched rocket attacks on Ukraine, and the Defense Forces shot down 12 of more than 20 launched cruise missiles.

Russia, during yesterday's rocket attack on Ukraine, for the first time since the beginning of a full-scale invasion, used missile carriers from the Caspian.

The head of the Joint Coordinating Press Center of the Defense Forces of the South of Ukraine, Natalya Gumenyuk, announced this on the air of the information telethon. She explained what that might mean.

"Characteristic of yesterday's rocket attack was that rocket carrier from the Caspian were used. This was recorded for the first time during the period of a full-scale invasion. Because, probably, it is more difficult for them to deliver these supplies to the Black Sea coast," Gumenyuk said.

According to her, Ukraine successfully managed to keep enemy logistics under fire control, including on the Left Bank.

According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russian troops launched 31 missiles and 12 air strikes on Ukraine over the past day. In addition, on New Year's Eve, Ukrainian soldiers destroyed 45 kamikaze drones.
