Ukraine launches massive drone attacks on Russia and Crimea

Ukraine carried out one of its heaviest drone attacks on Russia overnight, launching around 660 drones targeting Moscow, Crimea, and key military sites. Reports say a chemical plant linked to Russia's military supply chain was hit again in the bombardment.

The attacks on Crimea, which Russia annexed in 2014, are seen as exposing limits on President Putin's ability to protect the region. Ukraine has also stepped up pressure by imposing power outages, fuel bans, and canceling summer camps there. Meanwhile, a senior Ukrainian intelligence official was sentenced to life in prison for spying for Russia.
