The attack reportedly targeted an oil depot, a VK data center, and a highway, with flight operations at St. Petersburg airport restricted for safety reasons. The full extent of damage and any casualties remain unknown. The strike is the first major Ukrainian attack since a US-brokered ceasefire on energy infrastructure, which President Zelensky said he considers void, accusing Russia of violating the agreement from the start.
