Ukraine Launches Deep Drone Strikes Inside Russia Amid Escalating War

Ukraine Targets Industrial Sites Over 1,300 km Inside Russian Territory

In a bold escalation, Ukraine launched a long-range drone strike on a facility in Izhevsk, located over 1,300 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. The attack injured at least two people and caused a significant fire at a defense-related industrial plant. Ukrainian officials have not formally claimed responsibility, but the strike marks a major symbolic and strategic move, demonstrating Ukraine’s ability to hit deep into Russian territory.

This comes in response to a record-breaking 5,438 Russian drone attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure in June 2025, making it the most intense month for drone warfare since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
