"Russian officials reported one of the largest Ukrainian drone barrages since the full-scale invasion began, saying 251 drones were shot down across 14 regions, Crimea, and areas near the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. Nizhny Novgorod Governor Gleb Nikitin said air defenses intercepted 20 drones targeting an industrial zone that includes the ammunition plant and that no facilities were damaged. Ukraine's long-range attacks on refineries and oil sites have previously led to fuel shortages in Russia."
"Kyiv said the attack triggered multiple explosions and a fire at the plant, which is said to make aviation and artillery ordnance, aerial bombs, and anti-aircraft and anti-tank munitions. Ukrainian drones also hit an oil terminal in occupied Crimea, starting a blaze, and an ammunition depot of Russia's 18th Combined Arms Army, the General Staff said. Kyiv has been expanding its domestic weapons production, particularly drones, in an effort to strike deeper into Russian territory and disrupt President Vladimir Putin's war logistics."
