Russia is attacking Ukraine every day, even in the new year.

Our reporter is out in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, where anxious days are continuing that don't know when the air raid warning will go off.



Correspondent Kwak Sang-eun said that Russia fired another missile there at dawn today (2nd).

Russia continued its airstrikes this morning following the first day of the new year yesterday.



From around midnight until dawn, loud air-raid alerts sounded, followed by another explosion over Kieu.



Along with the missiles, the Iranian self-destruct drone 'Shahhead' was also mobilized for the attack on a large scale.

At least three people were killed and more than 50 injured in air raids that continued for two days in a row on New Year's Day.



Residents are staying up all night in fear of drying up blood due to daily air raids at dawn.



The Russian military claims to be destroying military installations and infrastructure, but the actual damage does not cover civilians.



On the 29th of last month, missile debris is scattered in a private house that was damaged by an air raid.



Russia fired 16 missiles at Kiiu alone that day, and Ukraine's air defense network succeeded in shooting down the missiles, but as you can see, some of the remains destroyed the houses so badly.

Not only this, but there are many places where water and electricity were cut off due to the Russian air raids, so I heard that the residents are having a hard time.

After Russia launched airstrikes on energy infrastructure facilities, power outages and water cuts became a daily routine for Ukrainians.



I visited the house of a resident in his 70s who lives alone.



In the winter of Kiiu, where it gets dark after 3pm, Grandpa Mekola often spends the night under a blanket with a candle lit.



Although the authorities announce in advance the time to give electricity for 6 hours a day, this is because even this is not observed whenever there is an air raid.



[Mecola/Kiu residents: For two days, electricity came only for 40 to 50 minutes.

I barely recharged my cell phone.]



When there is no electricity, communication is also cut off, and heating or water supply may be cut off without notice.



[Residents of Mekola/Kiuu: I am going to the hospital for heart surgery, but I am worried that if the electrical communication is cut off, I will not be able to contact the hospital even if something happens.]



International organizations and volunteer groups are running shelters by obtaining generators, but residents Supply is far short of demand.



[Violetta/Shelter User: The Russian Army is fighting the Ukrainian citizens meanly.]



Russia's airstrikes on civilian infrastructure are interpreted as a strategy to break the will of the Ukrainians to fight by giving them unbearable cold and pain during the harsh winter.



But Ukrainians say the Russian strikes are fueling anger and a will to fight rather than fear and frustration.
