Ukrainian drone strike cuts power in Sevastopol, kills 2 in Russia
What's new: Moscow said it downed 323 drones overnight, while Kyiv said it hit Sevastopol's main power substation.
A Ukrainian drone attack knocked out electricity in Sevastopol, the largest city in Russian-held Crimea, and debris from another strike killed two people at an industrial site in Russia's Nizhny Novgorod region, Russian officials said June 24. Sevastopol's Russian-installed governor, Mikhail Razvozhayev, said trolleybuses were halted and parents were urged to keep children at home as crews worked to restore power. Ukraine's drone forces commander, Robert Brovdi, said the operation struck the main substation at the Sevastopol power plant. Russia's Defence Ministry said air defenses destroyed 323 drones overnight across multiple regions, underscoring Kyiv's expanding campaign against Russian energy and military infrastructure.
