Ukraine launched a massive attack on Russia on Friday evening, with missiles and drones striking power plants and refineries across the country, according to a single source. The report describes the attack as "massive and unusual" but provides no specific locations, casualty figures, or damage assessments.
Ukraine has previously carried out large-scale cross-border attacks on Russian energy and infrastructure targets. As The Zioneer reported on June 10, Ukraine struck energy facilities in Samara Oblast and a security facility in Cheboksary. On July 4, Ukraine attacked hundreds of targets across Russia, including Moscow and St. Petersburg, hitting power plants and military installations. The current operation, if confirmed, would mark another significant escalation in Ukraine's ability to strike deep inside Russian territory.
Details remain limited, and the source has not been independently corroborated.
