Overview
- On Sunday, the Russian‑installed governor of Crimea said public fuel sales were suspended after a Ukrainian drone strike on a Kerch oil depot that Russian authorities said killed several people and wounded dozens.
- Ukraine’s military reported it struck a missile‑electronics plant in Voronezh and the Dubna satellite communications centre in Moscow region using long‑range missiles and drones, and local Russian officials confirmed damage and injuries at those sites.
- Moscow and the Russian defence ministry reported large numbers of Ukrainian drones were intercepted over the capital with airports temporarily halted, though official tallies vary widely between dozens and several hundred.
- Russian forces launched heavy retaliatory strikes inside Ukraine that killed civilians, including a family in Sumy, and caused damage to cities and maritime traffic with at least one foreign seafarer reported killed.
- The campaign is aimed at severing land, sea and fuel links to Crimea by hitting ports, ferries, bridges and depots, producing immediate civilian disruption on the peninsula and creating pressure on Russia’s southern logistics that could force rerouting or further escalation.
