Russia downs 146 drones over Leningrad as Ukraine strikes Donbas

aljazeera.com — November 11, 2026 at 06:01 AM UTC

Russia reported shooting down 146 drones over its Leningrad region on Tuesday, with Governor Aleksandr Drozdenko stating counter-action was ongoing, according to state news agency TASS. The drone origin was unclear, though a Ukrainian drone struck an oil refinery in Kirishi on Monday, killing a woman, and a separate attack caused a fire at Ust-Luga port. The escalation coincided with US-mediated Russia-Ukraine talks in Abu Dhabi, which Ukrainian President Zelenskyy called constructive. Ukrainian forces also fired at least 31 artillery shells on Moscow-occupied Donetsk, wounding three civilians, while attacks hit Kryvyi Rih. Latvia and Lithuania warned residents about unidentified drones entering their airspace, prompting NATO air defence activation.
