A time-lapse published by the YouTube channel AstronautiCAST shows Russian missile strikes on Kyiv filmed from aboard the International Space Station during the night of December 26–27. The compilation, recorded by an ISS camera, captures the flight paths of ballistic missiles and the operation of Ukrainian air defense systems over the capital and surrounding region. The footage shows both successful interceptions and visible impacts in Kyiv and near the Trypilska Thermal Power Plant. In the final seconds of the video, two ballistic targets are successfully intercepted.
