Overview
- Russian long-range missiles and mass drone attacks struck across Ukraine on Sunday, officials reported, killing civilians in Poltava and causing dozens of injuries and infrastructure damage in several oblasts.
- Ukrainian drone strikes hit Kerch and the Port Kavkaz area, igniting an oil depot fire, forcing suspension of the Kerch ferry and prompting Crimea and Sevastopol to halt retail fuel sales and impose power and transport restrictions.
- Moscow’s Defense Ministry said its air defenses shot down hundreds of Ukrainian drones and announced counterstrikes on Ukrainian infrastructure while Kyiv released footage and claimed damage to occupied-area logistics.
- Ukraine’s General Staff and drone commanders reported hits on railway bridges serving Crimea and said strikes also damaged Russian radar and compressor stations that support transport and energy flows.
- Ukrainian forces reported a separate strike on a Voronezh plant that supplies electronics for Russian missiles, a move that Kyiv says will degrade Russia’s missile production and that signals an expanding strike focus on Russian industrial nodes.
