Russian forces have conducted repeated ballistic missile and drone strikes on Kyiv in November 2026, targeting energy infrastructure, bridges, hospitals, and residential areas amid strained Ukrainian air defenses and winter heating demands. Recent attacks, including those on November 12–13 that damaged a hospital and apartment buildings, align with a broader campaign against power facilities and military-industrial sites. Diplomatic efforts, including U.S.-brokered talks in Abu Dhabi, have coincided with continued strikes rather than pauses. Trader assessments of daily targeting probabilities reflect this established pattern of Russian long-range operations, Ukrainian counterstrikes on Russian territory, and unresolved negotiations that have not yet altered Moscow’s operational tempo.
