Summary

Russia fired nearly 1,000 drones at Ukraine over a 24-hour period, in what Ukrainian officials described as one of the largest aerial attacks of the war. The attack killed at least eight people and damaged a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Ukrainian air defenses intercepted many of the drones, but the scale of the assault overwhelmed some systems. The attack is seen as part of a new Russian offensive that has been ramping up on the battlefield.
