Russia Fires 365 Missiles and Drones at Ukraine, Knocking Out Power Across Regions
Russia fired 365 missiles and drones at Ukraine, knocking out power across multiple regions, while both sides reported cyberattacks on emergency alert apps.
Russia fired 365 missiles and drones at Ukraine, knocking out power across multiple regions, according to headline reports on 3 November 2026. The barrage was listed among the day’s top world stories by Times Now’s 4 November headlines: “Russia Fires 365 Missiles And Drones At Ukraine, Knocking Out Power Across Multiple Regions”.
Highlights
- 365 missiles and drones were fired at Ukraine in the reported barrage.
- Power was knocked out across multiple regions, the reports said.
- Ukraine claimed Russia’s October casualty toll hit a record 54,400 — a Ukrainian claim, attributed as such.
- Ukraine and Russia also reported cyberattacks on their emergency alert applications.
- No independently verified breakdown of the 365 figure was carried in the sources used here.
Attacks on the power grid have a civilian cost that goes far beyond the front line: heating, water pumping, hospitals and rail signalling all depend on electricity, and every large-scale strike forces emergency repairs under the threat of follow-up attacks. The latest barrage comes after the longest Ukraine war ceasefire ended in Kherson after six days, underlining how quickly pauses in this war have collapsed.
The casualty claim — and why attribution matters
Times Now’s round-up also reported that “Russia’s October Casualty Toll Hits Record 54,400 As Ukraine Claims Gains On Battlefield”. That figure is Ukraine’s claim about Russian losses, not an independently verified count, and it is presented here exactly that way. Wartime casualty numbers from either side should always be read with that caution: both governments have incentives to shape the numbers, and independent verification in an active war zone is limited. The same discipline applies to the 365 figure itself, which comes from headline reporting of the barrage rather than a published itemised breakdown.
A second front: the alert apps
Alongside the physical barrage, Ukraine and Russia reported cyberattacks on their emergency alert applications, according to the Jagran Josh headlines for 4 November. Alert apps are part of civilian protection: they warn people to take shelter before missiles arrive. Disrupting them — or flooding them with false alerts — degrades that protection even when no missile is in the air. The diplomatic argument over the war’s conduct continues in parallel, as seen when the ICC president hit back at Trump sanctions in a UN address.
Public reactions
The sources used for this article did not carry verified public-reaction reporting from inside Ukraine on this specific barrage, so no reactions are quoted here rather than invented. What is clear from the pattern of the reports is the immediate priority on the ground: restoring power across the regions that lost it, before winter conditions deepen the impact on civilians.
