Russia has increasingly relied on glide-bomb strikes to hammer Ukrainian positions on the front lines and in the rear over the past few months.

Ukrainian officials claimed to have used drones to destroy six military aircraft and damage eight others at a Russian airfield in the Rostov region. However, Russian defense officials stated they intercepted 44 Ukrainian drones, with only a power substation damaged. The attack, one of Kyiv's largest air assaults in the war, targeted a military airfield near Morozovsk. The incident underscores the escalation of attacks on civilian infrastructure, including power plants, as both sides struggle to make significant advances on the ground.

Debris from an intercepted drone caused a short circuit in the power grid of a critical infrastructure facility. A fire broke out at the site, but was soon extinguished.

Mortar shelling in Seredyna-Buda injured two residents, the administration said. Earlier in the day, Ukraine’s National Police reported that a strike on the village of Khotin killed two police officers and wounded another six.

Shelling in the occupied village of Nove in the Polohy district killed a 76-year-old resident, Fedorov said. An artillery attack on the front-line town of Orikhiv injured a 53-year-old man.
