Ukraine Conducts Long-Range Strikes on Russian Military and Industrial Sites
Ukraine conducted long-range missile strikes targeting Russia's industrial and military sites, including the Progress Rocket and Space Center in Samara and the Savasleyka airbase in Nizhny Novgorod. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy stated these attacks aim to reduce Russia's war potential and pressure Moscow to end the conflict. Russian officials reported repelling a large missile attack on Samara with localized damage and provided medical aid to the injured. The strikes reflect an increase in Ukraine's long-range operations deep inside Russian territory amid the ongoing war.
