Ukraine launched its biggest attack of the war, hitting deep into Russia. Strikes targeted ammunition depots, chemical plants, and industrial sites up to 1,100km from the border. Key regions like Bryansk, Saratov, and Tula were impacted, causing explosions, school closures, and damage to buildings. Russia claimed to have shot down US-supplied Atacms and UK-made Storm Shadow missiles. Meanwhile, Kyiv accused Russia of drone strikes across Ukraine, most of which were intercepted. Amid a frontline troop shortage, Ukraine faces US pressure to lower the conscription age. President Zelensky urged faster delivery of weapons as the war continues to escalate.
