The Russian army launched another missile strike on Kyiv on the night of August 20. The attack involved 13 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles, 8 Iskander-M ballistic missiles, 2 Kh-23 missiles, and presumably North Korean KN-23 missiles. It is worth noting that air defense systems in Kyiv are currently inactive due to the cessation of Patriot missile deliveries to Ukraine.
