President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukrainian forces struck 16 targets inside Russia over the past 24 hours, according to his own account of the operations. The targets reportedly included oil facilities that help bankroll the Kremlin's war effort, along with airfields, a missile unit, military infrastructure, a defense enterprise and logistics sites. Zelenskyy framed the strikes as part of Kyiv's broader campaign to degrade Moscow's ability to sustain its invasion by hitting the energy revenue and military assets propping it up. The claims have not been independently verified by outside monitors, and Russian officials have not yet issued a public response. Ukraine has increasingly relied on long-range strikes deep inside Russian territory as the war grinds on, targeting refineries and logistics hubs it says are critical to Moscow's war machine.
