Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed on Sunday that overnight strikes targeted Russian military logistics, oil infrastructure, and air defense systems on both sides of the Crimea Bridge. The attacks occurred about 300 kilometers from the front line.

The strikes hit maritime logistics facilities for oil transportation in Krasnodar Krai and an oil depot in Kerch in occupied Crimea. Military logistics facilities were also targeted, along with four S-400 radar stations and two Pantsir systems.

Ukrainian media reported that drones attacked the port of Kerch and the port of Kavkaz in Krasnodar Krai, causing fires. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced a successful strike on an oil refinery in Tyumen Oblast, one of the largest in Western Siberia, which produces diesel, gasoline, and other oil products for the Russian army.

Additionally, Ukrainian soldiers damaged a railway bridge over the North Crimean Canal, a railway bridge in the Petershahen district of Zaporizhzhia Oblast, and a railway bridge over the Sivash near the Chonhar area.
