Russia attacked energy transmission facilities in the north and center of Ukraine with drones overnight, causing temporary power cuts for households and industrial producers.

Separately, UAVs from Ukraine targeted the large Millerovo air field in the Rostov region, which borders the eastern areas of Ukraine occupied by Russia since 2022 and is a base for Russian fighter jets.
