In the wake of the heavy losses, Russia's sinister doomsday radio burst into activity, spewing out codewords.
Known to be used by the KGB during the height of the Cold War, Radio station UVB-76 has been continuously buzzing since the late '70s to allegedly exchange secret military messages.
But its activity is known to increase following major military or political events.
Among the cryptic words it uttered in Russian were Duck, Walrus, Meadow, Bee-eater, and Fun.
While one knows what these eerie signals indicate, speculations are that they are linked to secret military operations or even nuclear protocols.
UVB-76 transmits on the frequency 4625 kHz and is characterised by an eerie sound that buzzes 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
It has been active this year previously after Putin's telephone calls with Donald Trump.
A furious Putin is now expected to attack Ukraine in a revenge blitz.
Just hours after Kyiv's audacious mass drone strike, Moscow launched, Russia launched a wave of retaliatory strikes overnight.
The deadly strikes overnight killed five in Zaporizhzhia, injured six in Sumy, and several more in the northeastern region of Kharkiv, according to Ukrainian authorities.
It comes as Russian and Ukrainian delegations are set to meet today in Istanbul for a second round of peace talks.
