Russia’s defense ministry said its military launched a “massive strike using high-precision, long-range weapons,” including drones, in response to Ukraine’s “attacks on civilian infrastructure within Russian territory.”

Ukraine has launched an unprecedented drone campaign against Russia in the past month, targeting energy infrastructure in long-range attacks that Zelensky has framed as a key strategy to force Moscow to end the war. Those attacks have penetrated deeper into Russia, bringing the realities of war to cities much further from the front lines.

A global energy crisis has erupted following US military attacks on Iran, prompting Russian President Vladimir Putin to declare a strategic pivot in the ensuing oil war. With the critical Strait of Hormuz effectively closed and oil prices soaring over 30%, Putin addressed Russian energy leaders, positioning Russia as a reliable supplier amid the chaos. He announced plans to potentially halt energy flows to the European Union, redirecting oil and gas exports to Asian markets and capitalizing on the supply disruption caused by the conflict initiated by US President Donald Trump’s administration. The move threatens to exacerbate global inflation and trigger a worldwide recession as markets react to the escalating geopolitical conflict in the Middle East.
