Summary
Ukraine unleashed a surprise drone barrage on Russian soil overnight, striking oil ports and a key military base near St. Petersburg — a bold move aimed squarely at crippling Russia’s war machine. President Zelenskyy confirmed the operation, framing it as retaliation for Russia’s deadliest-ever attack on Kyiv, which killed at least 27 and unleashed a storm of 74 missiles and 500 drones. While Russia claims to have shot down 72 drones and reported no civilian casualties, Ukraine denies losing ground in eastern cities like Kostiantynivka — calling Russian claims false. As the battlefield intensifies, both sides brace for more tit-for-tat strikes, with the world watching closely.
