Ukraine says it has launched one of its biggest drone campaigns yet, targeting Russia's shadow fleet, Crimea's power grid and military logistics. Putin has now vowed a much stronger response.
What You Need to Know
Ukraine claims Operation "Molochka" targeted more than 100 vessels in the Sea of Azov over nine days, including tankers, cargo ships, ferries and tugboats. These claims have not been independently verified.
Kyiv says its "Crimean Switch Off" campaign struck power substations, the Kuban-Crimea energy transfer point, a gas pumping station and multiple Russian air-defense systems.
Ukrainian officials say the strategy is aimed at disrupting Russian fuel deliveries, logistics and military operations connected to Crimea.
Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged temporary petroleum supply disruptions, announced new protected supply routes and warned Russia would respond "several times more powerfully" to future Ukrainian attacks.
The latest escalation highlights how the war is increasingly being fought through attacks on logistics, energy infrastructure and supply networks—not just on the battlefield.
