Russia conducts airstrikes on Ukrainian infrastructure

In a series of drone and missile attacks, Russia has targeted civilian and critical infrastructure across Ukraine, according to Kyiv’s air force. The attacks, which have been escalating in recent months, have primarily focused on military, energy, and transport infrastructure. While there have been no reported casualties thus far, an industrial site in the city of Kremenchuk was hit, resulting in a fire. Emergency crews are currently working to extinguish the blaze. In another incident, an infrastructure site in the Zaporizhzhia region was struck by a drone attack, although details of the damage and casualties remain unknown. Ukraine’s air defense systems managed to destroy four of the eight Russian-launched drones. Independent verification of the reports has not been possible, and Russia has not yet issued any comments regarding the attacks.
