Ukraine Launches Drones at Russia, Zelensky Calls Attack Justified

Russian air defenses intercepted around 600 Ukrainian drones during an overnight attack that killed four people. The interceptions occurred across 14 Russian regions and the annexed Crimean peninsula. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated on Sunday that the attack was a justified response to Russia's continuation of the war.

The drone operation took place overnight before Zelensky's statement. Russian authorities reported the interceptions and the four deaths. No further details on the locations of the fatalities or damage assessments were provided in the initial reports.
