Russian air defences intercepted 660 Ukrainian drones in a major nighttime attack on 12 Russian regions as well as the Russia-held Crimean peninsula, the Black Sea and the Azov Sea, Russia’s Defence Ministry said Friday (June 26).<\/p>\n

It appeared to be one of the biggest drone attacks on Russian regions and the illegally annexed Crimea since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine more than four years ago.<\/p>\n

In an effort to turn the tables on Russia’s grinding war of attrition, Ukrainian long-range drones have for months been battering targets, including oil production and energy facilities, behind the front line and deep inside Russia. <\/p>\n

The campaign has choked Russian fuel supplies and military deliveries, stalling Russia’s efforts on the battlefield, Western officials and analysts say, and heaped pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n

The major attack came hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on X that he had ordered “a 40-day influence operation”, believed to mean an escalation of attacks, aimed at “compelling (Russia) to end the war” after US peace efforts over the past year yielded no breakthrough.<\/p>\n

A Russian chemical plant is reportedly hit<\/h2>\n

In the Tula region just south of Moscow, a private house was damaged by the attack and a woman was wounded, Tula Gov Dmitry Milyaev said in an online statement as reports of damage caused by the attack began to emerge.<\/p>\n

He also said a power line was damaged and an unspecified industrial facility in the city of Novomoskovsk.<\/p>\n

Russian independent online outlet Astra reported that a chemical plant and a hydroelectric plant in Novomoskovsk were attacked and caught fire. <\/p>\n

The Associated Press couldn’t independently verify the report, and there was no official confirmation.<\/p>\n

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin also reported that 47 Ukrainian drones were downed as they flew toward the Russian capital. <\/p>\n

He did not report any casualties or damage.<\/p>\n

Two people were killed and seven others injured in Russian attacks on the northeastern Kharkiv region over the previous 24 hours, regional head Oleh Syniehubov said Friday.<\/p>\n

Russian forces struck the city of Kharkiv and 16 other settlements across the region using guided aerial bombs and drones of various types, Syniehubov said.<\/p>\n

Ukraine’s Defence Forces overnight stopped 174 of 189 Russian drones, the Ukrainian air force said. <\/p>\n

However, four of seven Iskander-M ballistic missiles that were fired got through air defences and struck various locations, it said.<\/p>\n
