Overview
- Ukrainian officials said more than 300 drones and 37 missiles were launched overnight, cutting power across eight regions and prompting emergency restrictions, with scheduled outages still in place in Chernihiv.
- Kharkiv authorities reported repeated strikes on power and gas facilities, full restoration of electricity, and about 400 customers still without gas as repairs continue under the threat of renewed attacks.
- Kryvyi Rih came under a large Shahed drone attack that damaged energy infrastructure and ignited an industrial facility, with local officials reporting multiple interceptions.
- Ukraine’s forces confirmed striking Russia’s Saratov oil refinery, while Russian officials reported a substation fire in Volgograd, damage to power substations in occupied Crimea, and drone activity over Sochi.
- Competing claims over interceptions and losses persisted, and Ukraine pressed partners for more air-defense and long-range capabilities as President Volodymyr Zelenskyy traveled to Washington for talks with President Donald Trump.
