On the night of July 26–27, Ukrainian drones attacked targets on Russian territory located up to 1,300 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. Targets in the Rostov region and Udmurtia were struck, including facilities related to the fuel and energy infrastructure and logistics, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported.
Overnight, long-range strikes reached three regions of Russia at once.
