Russian Missile and Drone Attack in Western Ukraine

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported another massive Russian missile and drone attack targeting sites in the western, central, and eastern parts of the country.

On Saturday, February 7, 2026, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that since 7:00 p.m. the previous day, Russia had carried out another air and missile attack against various targets, launching 447 munitions, primarily aimed at objectives in six oblasts.

The Russians launched:

  • 2 3M22 Tsirkon hypersonic cruise missiles from occupied Crimea;
  • 21 Kh-101 cruise missiles from over the Caspian Sea;
  • 16 Kalibr cruise missiles from vessels in the Black Sea;
  • 408 unmanned aerial vehicles, including approximately 250 Geran/Shahed-type drones and decoy UAVs of various types (including Gerbera), launched from the directions of Kursk, Bryansk, Oryol, Shatalovo, Millerovo, and Primorsko-Akhtarsk in Russia, as well as from Crimea and Donetsk.

The main directions of the attack were the Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Rivne, and Vinnytsia oblasts.

The attack was repelled by aviation, air defense missile forces, electronic warfare (EW) units and unmanned systems units, as well as mobile air defense groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to preliminary data, as of 10:30 a.m. local time, air defense systems had shot down or caused to crash 406 aerial targets, including 14 Kh-101 missiles, 10 Kalibr missiles, and 382 unmanned aerial vehicles.

Hits by 13 missiles and 21 UAVs were recorded at 19 locations. Debris from downed UAVs was also reported in three locations. At the time of publication, information regarding two missiles and an unspecified number of UAVs was still being clarified.

President Of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy:

Wherever the security situation allows, rescue and repair operations are underway at the sites of Russian strikes. Yesterday’s attack involved more than 400 drones and around 40 missiles of various types. The main targets were the power grid, power plants, and substations. Damage was recorded in the Volyn, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, and Rivne oblasts. In Rivne, a residential building was damaged. In Ladyzhyn, in the Vinnytsia oblast, drones struck the administrative building of an agricultural college. There were also attacks in the Kyiv and Kharkiv oblasts. Air defense operations are ongoing in several regions.

Russia could choose genuine diplomacy every day, but instead it chooses new strikes. It is crucial that everyone who supports trilateral negotiations responds to this. Moscow must be deprived of the ability to use the cold as a tool of pressure against Ukraine. This requires missiles for Patriot, NASAMS, and other systems. Every delivery helps us survive this winter. I thank all our partners who understand this and are sincerely helping.

The State Emergency Service of Ukraine:

Rivne Oblast: Two people were injured in a Russian attack. Three residential buildings were damaged. Fires broke out. Rescue services and law enforcement officers are working at the scene, documenting the consequences of another enemy strike.

Kyiv Oblast: As a result of a nighttime Russian drone attack in the city of Yahodyn, in the Boryspil district, a fire broke out at a warehouse complex. Firefighting operations are ongoing.

Volyn Oblast: Late in the evening of February 6, a Russian strike caused a fire at an infrastructure facility. No casualties were reported earlier. Thirty rescuers and eight units of equipment from the State Emergency Service were deployed to the scene.

At 5:21 a.m., the Polish Armed Forces Operational Command (DO RSZ) issued the following statement:

Attention. Due to the activity of long-range aviation of the Russian Federation conducting strikes on the territory of Ukraine, Polish military aircraft have begun operating in Polish airspace.

In accordance with established procedures, the Operational Command of the Armed Forces activated the necessary forces and assets at its disposal. Ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance systems have reached a state of readiness.

These actions are preventive in nature and are aimed at securing and protecting airspace, particularly in areas adjacent to threatened regions.

The Operational Command of the Armed Forces is monitoring the current situation, and subordinate forces and assets remain ready for immediate response.

At 8:11 a.m., another statement was released:

Military aircraft operations in our airspace, conducted in connection with strikes by the Russian Federation against Ukraine, have been concluded. The activated ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance systems have returned to standard operational activity.

We inform you that no violation of the airspace of the Republic of Poland was observed.

We thank NATO for its support, as well as Allied Air Command and the German Air Force, whose aircraft helped ensure security in Polish skies today. We also extend our thanks to the Netherlands Armed Forces for their support with air defense systems.

The Polish Armed Forces, in accordance with the framework of Operation Eastern Dawn, continue to monitor the situation in Ukraine and remain on constant readiness to ensure the security of Polish airspace.

On the above map, two points are worth noting: both Tsirkon hypersonic missiles struck targets in the Vinnytsia oblast (pink lines), and the presence of three drones was recorded near the Polish border (yellow lines). Although one of them was marked as having violated Polish airspace, the Polish Armed Forces Operational Command did not confirm this (it is possible that the drone crashed very close to the border).
