Ukraine carried out a major drone strike deep inside Russia on Sunday, hitting a heat and power station in the Moscow region and sparking a large fire that cut heating for thousands of residents. The attack marks one of Kyiv’s most significant hits on Russian energy infrastructure since the war began.

Ukrainian drones have hit a major heat and power station in the Moscow region, starting a fire and forcing Russia to rely on backup power generators, according to Russian reports. Ukrainian drones struck the Shatura Power Station, about 120 km (75 miles) east of the Kremlin, on Sunday, Moscow region governor, Andrei Vorobyov, said.

Ukraine launched a drone attack on the Shatura Power Station near Moscow, causing a significant fire and leaving thousands without heating.

An overnight drone strike triggered a fire at the Shatura power plant supplying Moscow, as Russia and Ukraine step up attacks on energy infrastructure amid a peace plan pushed by the Trump administration.

The protective shield built around the Chernobyl nuclear disaster site in Ukraine can no longer do its job to confine radioactive waste as a result of a drone strike earlier this year, according to the IAEA.

A covert long-range drone operation by Ukraine’s GUR Prymari unit has destroyed a Russian MiG-29 fighter jet stationed at Kacha Airfield in occupied Crimea. The strike also hit an IRTYSH radar complex near Simferopol,
