  • Russia’s Defense Ministry said Russian forces attacked two logistics centers and a merchant ship in Ukraine’s Odesa region with drones.
  • Moscow said the centers produced and stored unmanned aircraft and spare parts, while the ship was carrying military equipment for Ukrainian forces.
  • Authorities in Russian-controlled areas of Zaporizhzhia said six people were wounded in a separate attack on a market in Enerhodar, as U.S. envoys held talks in Kyiv.

The Russian army attacked two logistics centers and a merchant ship in the Odesa region, Moscow’s Defense Ministry said, in strikes that came as U.S. envoys met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv.

According to Russia’s evening military briefing, the centers targeted by Geran-4 drones were used to manufacture unmanned aircraft and store the equipment and spare parts. Moscow also said assault drones struck a merchant ship carrying military equipment for the Ukrainian army.

Authorities loyal to Moscow in Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia region separately accused Ukrainian forces of attacking a market in Enerhodar, the city that hosts Europe’s largest nuclear power plant. Six people were wounded, one of them seriously, they said.

The attacks coincided with talks in Kyiv between White House envoys and Zelenskyy. The envoys had met Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin on Saturday. Russia and Ukraine agreed to halt attacks on their respective capitals for 72 hours, covering Saturday, Sunday and Monday, but the agreement did not extend to the rest of either country.
