Ukraine hit by ballistic strikes as long-range attacks target Russian energy sites

Following warnings from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy regarding imminent large-scale Russian attacks, nationwide air raid alerts were activated as ballistic missiles hit targets in Kyiv, Vinnytsia, and Dnipro. The Ukrainian General Staff reported 191 combat engagements within 24 hours, alongside dozens of Russian air strikes concentrated in the Pokrovsk and Kostiantynivka sectors.

Concurrently, Ukrainian forces executed long-range drone attacks against Russian energy infrastructure, hitting an export terminal in Rostov and oil facilities in Yaroslavl and Udmurtia. In response to incoming Ukrainian drones, Russian defense systems intercepted 12 unmanned aerial vehicles near Moscow, briefly interrupting operations at local airports.
