NATO conducts drills near Kaliningrad as missile strikes hit Kyiv

US-led NATO forces, including American, Norwegian, and Polish units, conducted aerial and ground operations near Russia's Kaliningrad enclave. NATO characterized the maneuvers as routine efforts to enhance defensive capabilities.

Concurrently, overnight Russian ballistic missile strikes hit Kyiv shortly after American envoys departed the capital, killing at least two people and injuring six. Earlier strikes damaged a British American Tobacco facility in northern Ukraine. In response, Ukrainian drone attacks targeted Russia’s Saratov region, reportedly causing injuries.

Meanwhile, media reports citing investigative sources indicate Russia has constructed ten secret launching facilities near NATO borders. These sites are reportedly capable of deploying advanced long-range kamikaze drones into both Ukrainian and alliance territory.
