The dramatic video is geolocated to part of an industrial area in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro. The video is said to have been recorded on Thursday morning. The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense and the Ukrainian President are spreading the video. The cities of Dnipro, Odesa and Kyiv were attacked in the morning hours on Thursday. Among other things, the targets are said to have been power plants, industry and gas storages. Several million Ukrainians are now without electricity and heat due to the persistent Russian attacks on critical infrastructure. In the city of Dnipro, it is the Pivdenmash factory that has been hit. This is stated by Deputy Prime Minister Denys Sjmyhal. In peacetime, Pivdenmash produced parts for the Ukrainian space rocket Zenit. At least 16 people are said to have been injured in this attack. SHOT DOWN: Here, a Russian cruise missile is shot down near the Ukrainian capital Kyiv. Defending themselves In recent months, the Ukrainians have been able to shoot down many of the Russian missiles and drones. Several recordings from the last few days show shootings. Two videos from Kyiv region from Tuesday are said to show Russian Kalibr cruise missiles being destroyed by Ukrainian air defenses. What type of anti-aircraft we see in the videos is not known. There are missiles in use. The Ukrainians claim they shoot down well over half of all missiles and drones sent against the country. Nevertheless, there are many who find their goals. HITS: Two of the Russian cruise missiles that were shot down on Tuesday were caught on video. Norwegian Nasams On Wednesday, the US defense chief Lloyd J. Austin III informed the Ukrainians about the use of the Norwegian-made air defense system Nasams. Two such systems have been donated by the United States. They have done this by buying them from the manufacturer, Kongsberg ASA. The training was given to the Ukrainian air defense soldiers in Norway. – The Ukrainians now use Nasams. They have a one hundred percent success rate in stopping Russian missiles. They also had this during yesterday’s attack, said Austin.

Central Command Thinks it’s not enough The Ukrainians think the need for more air defense is dire. – Today, Russia attacked our critical infrastructure again. Putin wants to take away electricity and heat from millions of people. Give us more air defense systems and missiles to avert this tragedy. Delays cost lives, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko told Reuters. On Wednesday, the so-called contact group for Ukraine had a meeting. This is the group of countries that support Ukraine militarily, materially and financially. During the meeting, there was broad agreement to send more air defense to Ukraine. NASAMS: Norwegian soldiers with Nasams. Two such systems have been donated by American taxpayers to Ukraine.

In connection with the training of the Ukrainian forces in Norway, the leader of Venstre, Guri Melby, made a clear call. – We must continue to support Ukraine with what we can. I believe that, in addition to the training, Norway should also donate more air defenses such as NASAMS and naval targeting missiles such as NSM to Ukraine, as a clear and distinct signal that Norway and Europe’s support for Ukraine is both long-term and binding. We will support them until Russia is defeated, Melby wrote to news.
