A Ukrainian attack on the city of Penza in central Russia was reported this morning, according to a single source posting in Hebrew. No details on the target, method of attack, damage, or casualties are available.
A single one-line message reported a Ukrainian attack on the city of Penza, located in central Russia, this morning. No further information on the target, the type of weapon used, any damage, or casualties has been released. The report is unverified and comes from a single source. As The Zioneer has previously reported in a series of recent bulletins, Ukraine has intensified its long-range campaign deep inside Russian territory in recent weeks, with multiple drone and missile strikes on Crimea, the Moscow region, and southern Russian oil infrastructure. This reported Penza strike, if confirmed, would mark a significant expansion of that campaign, as Penza is located approximately 700 km (430 miles) south-east of Moscow. Awaiting verification.
