Ukrainian Strike Targets Key Russian Missile Facility in Deep-Range Operation

    An employee controls an unmanned ground vehicle during an exhibition of Ukrainian drone makers, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in an undisclosed location Ukraine says it carried out a long‑range strike against a major Russian ballistic missile production site, marking one of Kyiv’s deepest attacks inside Russian territory since the full‑scale invasion began. According to Ukrainian security officials, the operation targeted a facility involved in manufacturing components for Russia’s Iskander missile systems—munitions frequently used against Ukrainian cities. While Moscow has not confirmed the strike, Russian regional authorities reported explosions and a subsequent fire at an industrial site. Kyiv has increasingly relied on domestically produced long‑range drones and missiles as Western military aid faces delays, and Ukrainian officials framed the attack as part of a broader effort to degrade Russia’s ability to wage war.

Escalation in Gaza: Hospital in Flames Amidst Conflict

 

In a tragic turn of events, Israeli troops stormed the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza on Friday, forcibly removing staff and patients before setting parts of the hospital on fire. The hospital, one of the last operating in the area, has been repeatedly targeted over the past three months as Israeli forces continue their offensive against Hamas fighters.

The Gaza Health Ministry reported that the troops forced medical personnel and patients to assemble in the hospital yard, where they were stripped of their clothes in the cold winter temperatures. Some patients were relocated to the nearby Indonesian hospital, which had already been knocked out of operation by an Israeli raid earlier in the week.

The ministry's account, which could not be independently confirmed, described fires being set in several parts of the hospital, including the lab and surgery department. An audio message from an unidentified staff member posted on social media highlighted the dire situation, with patients unhooked from oxygen and at risk of dying at any moment.

This incident is part of a broader offensive that has seen northern Gaza areas like Jabaliya, Beit Hanoun, and Beit Lahiya virtually sealed off, with large parts of these districts leveled. The ongoing conflict has raised fears of famine, with the U.N. reporting only four humanitarian deliveries to the area from December 1 to December 23.

The Israeli military has claimed that their operations target Hamas infrastructure and fighters, though they have provided no evidence to support their accusations that Hamas fighters were operating inside Kamal Adwan Hospital. Hospital officials have denied these claims.

The situation remains dire, with thousands of Palestinians forced out of their homes and the health sector in Gaza devastated by the nearly 15-month-old campaign of bombardment and offensives. The international community continues to watch closely as the humanitarian crisis in Gaza deepens.
