Russia has fired more than 19,000 missiles and drones at Ukraine over the past three months, according to a report to the U.S. Congress
Between January and March 2026, Russia launched 19,044 missiles and drones at Ukrainian territory.
These figures are contained in a new report by the Special Inspector for Operation Atlantic Resolve, prepared for the U.S. Congress.
The document was prepared by the inspectors general of the Pentagon, the U.S. Department of State, and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
The report notes that Ukraine’s air defense system has significantly improved its performance in intercepting aerial targets.
While at the end of 2025 the Ukrainian Armed Forces were intercepting about 81.2% of Russian air attacks, by early 2026 this figure had risen to 88.1%.
The report’s authors note that the intensity of Russian attacks on military facilities, energy infrastructure, and civilian targets
remained roughly at the level of the last quarter of 2025.
The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) of the U.S. Department of Defense states in the report that Ukraine still lacks modern air defense systems and F-16 fighter jets.
According to U.S. intelligence, this is what makes it difficult to fully protect Kyiv and critical infrastructure from Russian strikes.
The DIA also notes that Russian attacks on the energy grid have caused widespread and prolonged power outages, but have failed to significantly reduce the combat capability of the Ukrainian military.
The report emphasizes that, despite constant attacks and civilian casualties, Ukrainian society continues to support the Defense Forces and opposes any softening of Ukraine’s position in negotiations with Russia.
Russian troops continue to shell Bohodukhiv in the Kharkiv region; the attacks have resulted in injuries and damage to infrastructure.
As a reminder, Russia attacked a substation in the Kramatorsk district with an FPV drone.
In the Zolochiv community of the Kharkiv region, a Russian drone attacked the Hryhorii Skovoroda National Literary and Memorial Museum.
