Ukrainian drone strikes cause casualties across Russia as frontline battles persist

Ukrainian drone attacks across several Russian regions have resulted in multiple civilian casualties and infrastructure damage. In Moscow Oblast, regional authorities reported that a strike on a local warehouse left five people dead and ten injured. In Leningrad Oblast, air defense systems intercepted 17 drones near Krasny Bor, where falling debris triggered a fire at a Wildberries e-commerce facility for a second consecutive night, injuring one person.

Meanwhile, in Krasnodar Krai, a drone crash on a beach in Arkhipo-Osipovka killed seven people, including three children, and injured around 40 others. On the battlefield, Russian troops achieved tactical advances near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian forces progressed toward Uspenivka. Additionally, Belarusian forces established a new air assault brigade along the Ukrainian border.
