Ukraine launched hundreds of drones across Russia on Sunday, killing at least six people. The strike is one of Kyiv’s largest aerial attacks since the war began.
The drones targeted multiple regions, according to Russian officials. The six deaths occurred in a single area, though local authorities did not immediately specify the exact location.
This attack marks a significant escalation in Ukraine’s use of long-range drones. Previous strikes have been smaller and less frequent.
Russian air defense systems intercepted many of the drones, but several got through. The full scale of the damage is still being assessed.
The attack comes as both sides continue to trade strikes far behind the front lines. Ukraine has increasingly used drones to hit Russian territory, aiming to disrupt supply lines and military operations.
