Russia Launches 322 Drones at Ukraine, Ukrainian Defenses Neutralize 292

Ukraine struck the Borisoglebsk air base in Russia's Voronezh region, targeting key military assets including Su-34, Su-35S, and Su-30SM fighter jets, as part of its ongoing efforts to disrupt Russian military capabilities. Russia escalated its attacks on Ukraine by launching 322 drones overnight, focusing on the Khmelnytskyi region, especially the city of Starokostiantyniv, a significant Ukrainian military hub. Ukrainian air defenses responded robustly, neutralizing 292 drones through a combination of shooting down and electronic jamming, with no reported casualties or major damage in the targeted areas. Russian air defenses also intercepted drones headed for Moscow, leading to temporary flight restrictions at Sheremetyevo and other airports. Despite the intense drone barrage, Ukrainian forces managed to prevent significant damage, though some infrastructure damage and injuries were reported in regions like Dnipropetrovsk and Nikopol. The attacks follow a recent productive discussion between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US President Donald Trump on strengthening Ukrainian air defenses and exploring joint weapons production.
