Russian Strikes Escalate on Ukrainian Ports, Warehouses and Military Sites

The Russian Defense Ministry reported a series of overnight group strikes targeting Ukrainian port infrastructure in Nikolaev, Odessa and Izmail, as well as a high‑precision attack on a dry cargo vessel carrying military supplies. Additional Russian operations hit military‑manufacturing facilities in Kyiv, logistics hubs for long‑range drones, and several Wildberries retail warehouses across Russian cities. Russian officials described Ukrainian attacks on civilian tourist camps in the Zaporozhye region as "an act of terrorism," quoting Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova: "Striking civilians is the method used by terrorists."

Ukrainian forces have responded with drone and missile attacks on Russian logistics centers, a weapons exhibition near Kyiv, and commercial targets they say support the Russian war effort. The fighting continues to cause civilian casualties and disrupt supply chains on both sides.
