Why It Matters

Ryssland har förändrat sin strategi genom att koncentrera missiler mot färre mål för att överbelasta det ukrainska luftförsvaret.

Orten Priluky i Tjernihiv drabbades hårdast när ett höghus med lägenheter träffades av en kryssningsrobot. Enligt ukrainska myndigheter dödades 22 personer i anfallet. Fem var barn, tre omkring ett år gamla. Minst 54 personer skadades.

”Det var ren skräck. Och ljudet från missilerna, det går inte att beskriva” säger grannen Halyna Osovyk till Kyiv Independent.

Hon kände en del av dem i grannhuset som träffades. I en familj dödades mormodern, modern och ett barn. Ett annat barn räddades och fördes till sjukhus.

Onsdagens anfall riktades mot flera platser i Ukraina, bland andrna Krementjuk och huvudstaden Kiev där 2 respektive 4 personer och ett 60-tal skadades. I huvudstaden slogs el- och vatten ut.

Sammanlagt rör det sig om minst 30 dödade och 117 skadade under dygnet, vilket gör det till ett av de värsta på mycket länge.

Enligt tankesmedjan ISW är det ett led i Putins nya strategi att under kommande vinter tvinga Ukraina att kapitulera, genom att satsa allt på ett luftkrig istället för markinvasionen, som i princip står stilla.

I tankesmedjans senaste rapport om anfallet konstaterar man att Ryssland också bytt strategi, och koncentrerar sina anfall med flera missiler mot färre mål, för att överbelasta det ukrainska luftförsvaret på platsen. Uppgifterna kommer från ryska militärbloggare som uppger att man anföll Krementjuk och Oleksandrija med 30 kryssningsrobotar. De jetdrivna drönarna, som Ukraina har svårare att försvara sig emot, används i kombination med robotar för slå igenom det ukrainska försvaret.

Fram till och med augusti i år hade antalet civila ukrainska offer i kriget ökat med 55 procent jämfört med samma period förra året, över 15 380 dödade eller skadade.

Open Questions

  • Hur kommer det ukrainska luftförsvaret att anpassa sig?
  • Vilka ytterligare mål kan drabbas av den nya strategin?

Emma Bouvin: Three years later, the wound is still wide open

In Israel, people remember the attack on October 7, 2023, when Hamas killed over 1,200 people and took hostages. Ahead of the election, the memory of the attack is strongly present, as shown by dancing and protesting at the site where the Nova festival took place. The country is divided between two equal-sized blocs and Arab-Israeli parties with which no one wants to cooperate. The war in Gaza is over but the wound is open and the fear of it happening again is dominating the election campaign.

The school opens in tents - after three years without normal teaching

The autumn term has started at the Josur School in Gaza City, where teaching takes place in six tents due to the war damage. The school's principal Islam al-Shami describes difficult conditions with a lack of benches, leaking tents and mental illness among students and staff. Many children have lost family members and the school simultaneously functions as a shelter for internally displaced persons. According to Unicef, at least 21,700 children have been killed and over 11,000 injured in Gaza since the war began. Despite difficulties, the first day of school is eagerly awaited by students like Maha Mohammed and Ismail Shehata, who yearn for a normal everyday life.

TPLF rebels withdraw from Mekelle as regional unrest grows over Ethiopian conflict

TPLF rebels have retreated from Mekelle in Tigray and the federal government has regained control of the airport. Residents report federal troops in and outside the city and fears of looting after police stations are abandoned. Amnesty International warns of violations of international law and a meeting between Egypt, Eritrea, Somalia and Sudan in el-Alamein has confirmed fears of a regional spread of the conflict, where all four countries have an interest in opposing Abiy Ahmed's government. Meanwhile, seven Ethiopian rebel groups have formed an alliance against the prime minister, increasing his vulnerability if he continues to bring troops north.
