Ukrainian Drone Attack on Russian Airbase and Russian Airstrike on Ukraine

It has just turned 6pm in Ukraine and Russia . Here are the key events you might have missed from the day: A Ukrainian drone attack targeting the Morozovsk airbase in Russia has killed or injured 20 members of airfield personnel and destroyed six Russia n warplanes, as well as badly damaging eight others, according to officials in Kyiv. Russia n defence officials, however, have claimed they intercepted more than 40 Ukrainian drones and only a power substation was damaged in the barrage.

The Guardian could not independently verify either side’s claims. A Russian airstrike on Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia has killed two people and injured six others, according to local governor. A series of blasts had been reported in the city of Zaporizhzhia on Friday. Reuters reported earlier in the day that Ukraine’s air force shot down all 13 drones used in Russia’s overnight attack on the southern regions of Zaporizhzhia, Odesa and Dnipropetrovsk, though nothing had been said about the missiles.
