Ukraine Reports Intensified Long-Range Drone Strikes Deep Inside Russia

Ukrainian officials have stated that the country's long-range drone campaign significantly intensified in June, striking key military and industrial targets far behind enemy lines. According to the statement, the drones have been hitting oil refineries that supply fuel to the Russian army, naval facilities including bases and ship repair yards, defense plants producing weapons and ammunition, and logistics hubs used for moving troops and supplies. These strikes are aimed at crippling Russia's war machine by disrupting its rear infrastructure. The new tempo reflects Ukraine's growing capabilities in drone technology and coordination. The campaign marks a shift, as it challenges the previously perceived safety of Russia's deep rear areas. Ukrainian authorities have indicated that these operations will continue and expand to maximize disruption of Russian military logistics. Specific numbers of targets hit or damage assessments have not been disclosed, though Russian sources frequently report drone interceptions.
