Ukraine launches largest-ever drone attack on St Petersburg after US waives sanctions

irishtimes.com — October 18, 2026 at 08:01 PM UTC

Ukraine launched its largest-ever drone attack on St Petersburg on Sunday, defying US demands to halt strikes on Russian energy infrastructure. Fires broke out at an oil terminal, with one person killed and nine injured. The attack came after President Donald Trump announced an "energy ceasefire" and waived sanctions on Russian energy exports, but Ukraine resumed strikes following continued Russian attacks on its own energy facilities. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Russia launched 180 drones and missiles overnight, causing power outages. Russian air defence claimed to have shot down 1,015 drones nationwide, including 512 in the Moscow area. The strikes also hit a data centre and warehouse, while airports in Moscow and St Petersburg were temporarily closed. Zelenskiy accused the US of limiting military support while embracing economic deals with Russia.
