The overnight attack hit strategically significant energy and logistics infrastructure, including oil facilities, while Russian officials said 126 drones were intercepted in the region. The strikes mark a sharp escalation in Ukraine’s long-range campaign against Russian territory and energy assets, coming amid continuing Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure. The incident also raises wider concerns about spillover risks along NATO’s eastern flank and potential disruption to regional fuel supplies.
