Officials in Ukraine say Russian drones struck the Black Sea city of Mykolaiv, setting a hotel ablaze and damaging energy infrastructure while ammunition shortages continue to hobble Kyiv’s troops in the more than 2-year-old war. The governor of Ukraine’s southern Mykolaiv province said there were no casualties in the attack early Sunday.

Borodyanka was occupied by Russian troops at the beginning of their full-scale invasion in 2022.

Russian state agency RIA carried claims that the strike on Mykolaiv targeted a shipyard where naval drones are assembled, as well as a hotel housing “English-speaking mercenaries” who have fought for Kyiv. The RIA report cited Sergei Lebedev, described as a coordinator of local pro-Moscow guerrillas. His claim could not be independently verified.

Russian troops “will likely make significant gains in the coming weeks” while Kyiv awaits much-needed arms from a huge U.S. aid package to reach the front, a Washington-based think tank said.
