Overview
- Ukraine reported close to 1,000 drones and missiles over 24 hours, in what officials called Tuesday’s rare daytime assault that left at least seven people dead and more than 70 injured.
- The air force counted 392 drones and 34 missiles overnight, then 556 more drones by day, and said it downed most of them including 541 in daylight.
- Downtown Lviv was hit and part of the UNESCO‑listed Bernardine Monastery and St. Andrew’s Church complex was damaged during the daylight strikes.
- The attacks cut a key power line that links Moldova to Europe, prompting leaders in Chișinău to prepare a 60‑day energy emergency as grids rerouted power.
- Lithuania opened a probe after a suspected drone crossed from Belarus and exploded in a lake, spotlighting low‑altitude detection gaps on NATO’s eastern flank.
