November 2024 in brief
UNHCR said nearly 4 million people remained displaced inside Ukraine and 6.7 million abroad as the war neared 1,000 days, and that attacks had destroyed 65 percent of Ukraine's energy generation capacity. [1] Russia fired about 120 missiles and 90 drones at the power system in the largest attack in months, killing at least seven people, Ukrainian officials said, and a second mass strike later in the month left more than one million people without electricity in western Ukraine. [1][2] Regional authorities said a ballistic missile on an apartment block in Sumy killed 11 people, including two children, and the Odesa governor said a strike on Odesa killed 10, seven of them police officers. [1][2] After reports that Washington had eased limits, Russia said Ukraine fired six US-made ATACMS at Bryansk Oblast, and Bloomberg reported Ukraine used British Storm Shadow missiles in Kursk Oblast for the first time. [1][2] Russia then struck Dnipro with a new intermediate-range ballistic missile that Putin called Oreshnik, saying it was a response to Ukraine's use of US and British weapons, and he signed an updated nuclear doctrine. [1] A Ukrainian official said North Korean troops in Kursk Oblast had come under fire for the first time, a claim the Kyiv Independent could not verify. [1] In Europe, the Leiden dataset recorded undersea cable cuts in the Baltic linked to the Chinese ship Yi Peng 3 and interference in Romania's presidential election in favour of a candidate opposed to aid for Ukraine.
