The Russian Ministry of Defense announced a massive overnight strike by Russian forces on military-industrial complex facilities in Kyiv and the Kyiv region.

The strikes utilized ground-based precision weapons and long-range attack drones, according to the Russian defense ministry. This action is part of the ongoing conflict that began with Russia's full-scale invasion.
