The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Ukraine's President Zelenskyy has confirmed long-range strikes up to 1,200 km inside Russia, hitting a weapons plant in Kirov, an oil refinery in Tyumen, fuel depots in Rostov-on-Don, a logistics hub in Yekaterinburg, and vessels including a warship in the Caspian Sea.
- Ukraine frames these strikes as 'long-range sanctions' targeting the facilities that fuel Russia's war effort, in response to Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities and energy infrastructure.
- Russian officials confirmed fires but denied major damage or casualties, though the report notes the strikes show Ukraine's growing deep-strike reach into areas like the Urals and Siberia.
- The attacks also target the Iran-Russia military supply link, adding an international dimension to the conflict.
