Ukraine has shot down 54 of the 69 missiles from Russia which has 78% of successful rate. Let's make it to 100% in 2023.

Did the other Russian missiles surrender, blow themselves up, fire at each other, or just fall apart? /s

I saw a video where a Russian missile did a U turn and went right back to launch base

That was back over the summer and pretty sure it was an s300. Pretty funny

Nah there is a different angle video from the same incident i don't have at hand right now where you can see that it actually hit far from the starting point. Still a malfunction I guess but not a self kill

Some probably have found their targets.

So Russia does this huge damage with just 15 missiles?

Almost half of Kyiv had no power. And Russia managed this with just 15 missiles across different cities?

That logic doesn't add up.

Or do you mean out of the 69 missiles Ukraine tried to intercept they managed to take down 54? While the other ones they didn't try to intercept don't count.

What are you talking about, Kyiv didn't have massive blackouts after this latest attack. 40% of households were without electricity during and a short time after the attack as a preventative measure, but Kyiv was back to usual that same day.

Kyiv was attacked repeatedly since October. The damage sustained by the utility infrastructures is accumulative, not because of this single attack. Ukraine has been trying to intercept all the cruise missiles and Kamikaze drones with progressive improvement of their proficiency. This is their best that they have achieved so far

I mean Ukraine pretty much managed to turn around the war with a handful of himars system. They went from losing Sievierodonetsk from overwhelming artillery barrages to destroying all their logistics with Himars and taking back Kherson and Kharkiv. The damage to Ukraine's infrastructure meanwhile is getting repaired pretty quickly, minimizing the effectiveness of missile strikes that are costing them like half a billion each.
