Russia and Ukraine Trade Strikes on Ports and Logistics Hub
Russia strikes Ukrainian ports and military targets; Ukraine hits a large Wildberries logistics hub and a Bastion missile system in Crimea.
Russia and Ukraine reported fresh attacks on each other's infrastructure on Sunday, with Moscow claiming strikes on Ukrainian port facilities and Kyiv saying it hit a major logistics hub and a missile system.
The Russian Defense Ministry said its forces launched air strikes on vessels transporting supplies for Ukrainian troops in the port of Odessa. It also reported attacking an unmanned boat production workshop near the port and the mooring area of Ukrainian patrol boats near the Port of Vylkove.
In the Black Sea east of Odessa, Russian forces targeted a dry cargo ship carrying weapons from Western countries to Ukraine, according to the ministry.
Moscow also said it carried out cluster strikes using land- and air-based high-precision weapons and long-range attack drones on military industrial enterprises in Kyiv, a refinery in Poltava Oblast, and a metallurgical plant in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
On the Ukrainian side, the Defense Ministry reported a large-scale drone attack early Sunday on the logistics hub of Russia's online retailer Wildberries in the Moscow region. The hub, covering 250,000 square meters, is the company's largest warehouse facility. Seven of Wildberries' ten large warehouses have been shut down, the ministry said.
The Ukrainian Navy said it struck Russian Bastion missile system launch positions in Crimea in the early hours of Sunday. The Bastion has been used by Russian forces to launch Oniks supersonic and Zircon hypersonic missiles against southern Ukraine and other regions, the Navy noted.
