bbc.com (Portuguese)

Ukraine launched its largest drone attack on Moscow, with 450 drones shot down, killing at least two people and wounding 20, according to Russian officials. The strike targeted a major oil refinery and a residential building. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin called the overnight assault "most massive," while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed strikes on a key oil facility and logistics hub that he said fund Russia's war machine. Ukrainian officials reported nine deaths, including three children, from Russian attacks in Kyiv and Sumy regions. The attack coincided with Russia's parliamentary election, which Sobyanin said it aimed to disrupt. Moscow's Sheremetyevo and Vnukovo airports temporarily suspended operations. The strikes follow recent escalations by both sides targeting energy infrastructure, despite US President Donald Trump's claim of an agreement to avoid such attacks.
