Russia reported that a wave of Ukrainian drones caused power outages in one of its border areas, marking one of Kyiv’s most extensive assaults of the conflict. Ukraine has pledged to step up attacks on Russian soil, particularly against oil facilities, as retaliation for Moscow’s frequent strikes on Ukrainian cities and its energy systems that have left millions without heat and power.

The Russian Defense Ministry said its forces shot down 251 Ukrainian drones overnight, one of the highest counts since the invasion began in February 2022. In the Belgorod region, approximately 5,400 residents lost electricity across 24 settlements, and officials confirmed that a refinery strike in the Krasnodar region had injured two people.

Ukrainian authorities said Russia launched 116 drones at its territory, damaging an energy site in the Chernihiv region and killing a woman in Kherson. Officials added that Moscow has increased assaults on Ukraine’s power grid, repeating tactics from past winters that left millions without light and heat. Kyiv’s recent strikes on Russian oil refineries have led to fuel shortages and higher gasoline prices as it seeks to cut Moscow’s energy income used to support its military.
