Ukrainian drone attacks targeted major Russian logistics hubs while Russian forces made gains in Kharkiv and struck Kyiv.

Ukrainian drone strikes hit major Russian logistics targets, including Wildberries and Ozon facilities across multiple regions, causing operational halts and driving Ozon shares down by nearly 30 percent. Separate drone impacts caused civilian casualties in Moscow Oblast and Krasnodar Krai, where seven people died on a beach in Arkhipo-Osipovka. Meanwhile, Russian strikes on Kyiv killed nine people and injured 33.

On the frontline, Russian forces made tactical gains near Artelne in Kharkiv Oblast, while Ukrainian troops advanced toward Velyka Novosilka. In Belarus, military authorities announced plans to establish a new air assault brigade along the southern border with Ukraine.
