Russia’s Defense Ministry said its forces carried out overnight strikes on Ukrainian air bases and weapons depots. The ministry did not provide independent evidence for the claims, and Reuters said it could not immediately verify the battlefield assertions.

Ukrainian officials, meanwhile, reported damage to infrastructure in several regions following the attacks. The extent of the damage and whether the strikes hit the intended targets remains unclear, as wartime reports from both sides are difficult to confirm quickly.

The latest exchange underscores the continuing toll of Russia’s full-scale war on Ukraine, which has repeatedly damaged civilian infrastructure and strained air defenses. As the conflict continues, officials on both sides continue to issue competing accounts of the overnight fighting.
