Drone strikes hit Russian warehouses and Black Sea coast amid ongoing fighting

Cross-border strikes and ground combat continue to inflict casualties across Ukraine and Russia. Ukrainian drone incursions targeted Russian logistics infrastructure, igniting fires at Wildberries warehouses in both the Leningrad and Moscow regions. Officials reported five fatalities in the Moscow region, while wider reports confirmed six deaths across targeted warehouse sites. In Russia's southern Krasnodar region, a drone crash on a Black Sea beach near Gelendzhik killed seven people, including three children, and injured roughly 40 others.

Meanwhile, an overnight aerial attack on Kyiv killed nine people and wounded 33. On the ground, Russian forces advanced near Artelne in the Kharkiv region and pushed into Kostiantynivka, while Ukrainian troops progressed toward Uspenivka. Belarusian authorities also initiated the formation of a new air assault brigade near the border with Ukraine.
