Russia Launches Large-Scale Barrage Across Ukraine as Kyiv Strikes Russian Energy Sites

Kyiv targets refineries, pipeline nodes to curb Russia’s war financing.

Overview

  • Ukrainian officials said Russia fired about 580 drones and 40 missiles across nine regions overnight, killing at least three people and injuring dozens, with a cluster‑munitions missile striking an apartment block in Dnipro.
  • Ukraine’s Air Force reported high interception rates for drones and missiles, while Russia claimed it downed hundreds of Ukrainian drones, underscoring sharply conflicting tallies.
  • Ukraine’s General Staff and the SBU said drones hit Rosneft’s Saratov and Novokuibyshevsk refineries and several pumping stations linked to the KuibyshevTikhoretsk pipeline toward Novorossiysk.
  • Polish authorities reported finding debris believed to be the last of 19 Russian drones that violated Poland’s airspace earlier this month as NATO members boost air patrols, including RAF sorties over Poland.
  • Regional officials reported a “double‑tap” strike that wounded firefighters in Chernihiv, and Ukraine’s military intelligence said it destroyed three Russian Mi‑8 helicopters and a Nebo‑U radar in occupied Crimea.
