The Ukrainian General Staff said its forces hit the Dubna space communications center in the Moscow region, the Kavkaz port in the Krasnodar region, two car ferries used to supply Russian troops, a Voronezh plant producing electronics for the Iskander and Kh-101 missiles, a drone operator training ground, and a bridge.

Russia's Defense Ministry said air defenses destroyed 301 Ukrainian drones overnight over its territories. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said 84 drones were shot down near the capital, with no casualties or damage reported.

Ukrainian officials said Russian drones struck three foreign-flagged civilian ships overnight, killing an Egyptian crew member aboard a Panama-flagged bulk carrier.
