Over 72 hours, the risk remains high as Kyiv is unlikely to fall off Russia’s target list, but intensity may fluctuate with operational cycles and competing target priorities. Localized blackouts, damaged transmission nodes, and repeated air-raid alerts are expected.

## Drivers

- Central role of Kyiv in political, military, and grid control functions
- Russian practice of spacing major salvos while maintaining persistent pressure

## Indicators

- Continuation of cross-country salvos that include at least some missiles aimed at Kyiv
- Reports of degraded or rerouted power from Kyiv region control centers
