The Russian Defense Ministry has said 45 Ukrainian drones were intercepted overnight over several regions. UAVs were shot down over the Leningrad, Voronezh, Belgorod, Vladimir, Bryansk, Volgograd, Penza, and Krasnodar regions, as well as over the Black Sea.

Leningrad Region was among the hardest-hit, with military forces continuing to repel a massive wave of Ukrainian drones. Governor Aleksandr Drozdenko said that, as of the latest update, 22 UAVs had been shot down. St. Petersburg’s Pulkovo Airport was also forced to introduce temporary flight restrictions due to the drone incursions.

In recent months, Kiev has intensified strikes on Russia’s regions, including civilian and oil infrastructure, in an effort to disrupt the country’s ability to export crude. Ukrainian officials deny deliberately targeting civilians, claiming that their goal is to inflict economic damage to pressure Russia to abandon its objectives in the four-year Ukraine conflict.
