Russia continued their large-scale attacks on western Ukraine using Geran-4/5 jet-drones last night, primarily targeting Rivne Oblast.

Explosions were heard in the cities of Lutsk, Manevychi, and Kovel (Volyn Oblast); Dubno, Zdolbuniv and Rivne (Rivne Oblast); Mohyliv-Podil's'kyi (Vinnytsia Oblast); as well as Yarmolyntsi and Shepetivka (Khmelnytskyi Oblast).

Targets hit include the 330 kV electrical substation in the city of Kovel, an oil depot in the city of Shepetivka, and railway infrastructure elsewhere. However, the main target appears to have once again been Rivne, where large fires broke out following several strikes on the city.
