Ukrainian forces carried out a large-scale overnight drone attack targeting military facilities and energy infrastructure across several Russian regions. Moscow said air defense systems intercepted a substantial number of the drones involved.

Russia responded with its own drone and missile strikes on several Ukrainian cities. The overnight exchange of attacks left a combined total of 12 people dead across both countries.

The strikes underscore a renewed intensification of the war's focus on energy and military-industrial infrastructure. International officials said they are closely monitoring the escalating exchange of attacks between the two sides.
