Russian troops fired missiles and shellfish into cities and cities throughout Ukraine on July 17 after the Russian military announced it would increase attacks on neighbors. Ukraine reported that at least 17 more civilians were killed.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu gave “Instructions to further intensify unit actions in all operational areas, to exclude the possibility of the Kyiv regime launch a large rocket and artillery strikes on civil infrastructure and residential residents in Donbas and other regions,” the ministry said on Saturday.

The Ukraine atomic energy agency accused Russia of using the largest nuclear power plant in Europe to store weapons and control the surrounding areas in the Nicopol and Dnipro which was hit on July 16. More than 20 weeks since Russia invaded its neighbors, which caused thousands of deaths and millions from abandoned Ukraine, the president of the State Volodymyrmyr Zelensky was blamed Moscow for trying to cause maximum damage, but promised that Ukraine would “survive” in the conflict.

Ukraine authorities throughout the country reported the strike of Russia’s new missiles and the shooting on July 16 that killed at least 16 civilians, the deaths that occurred after the Russian Top military announced it would increase attacks on their neighbors.

Russian missiles reach industrial facilities in a strategic city in South Ukraine Sunday when Moscow continues efforts to expand its profits in the east of the country.

Mayor of Mykolaiv Oleksandr Senkevych said that Russian missiles crashed into industrial and infrastructure facilities in the city, the main shipbuilding center in the mouth of the southern bug river. There is no direct information about the victim.

Mykolaiv has faced regular Russian missile attacks in recent weeks because Russia has tried to soften the Ukrainian defense.

The Russian military has declared a goal to cut the entire black coast of Ukraine to the Romanian border. If successful, such efforts will provide a major blow to the economy and trade of Ukraine and allow Moscow to secure the land bridge to the transnytrian separatist area, which hosts the Russian military base.

At the beginning of the campaign, Ukrainian troops fended off Russia’s efforts to capture Mykolaiv, which is near the black sea coast between Crimea occupied by Russia and the main port of Ukraine Odesa.
