Ukraine launches largest air attack on Russia since start of war

Let's begin today with updates on the war in Ukraine.

Kyiv has claimed it launched its largest air attack of war so far.

That's right. Ukraine's military struck several targets deep inside Russia on Tuesday in what it called the "most massive" air attack since the start of the war.

Ukraine deployed over a hundred drones and more than a dozen cruise missiles targeting infrastructure in cities far from the Ukrainian border.

Damage was reportedly caused at gas storage tanks, that served an airbase for Russian bomber planes, as well as ammunition depots and chemical plants.

In response, Russia has accused Ukraine of "energy terrorism" following an alleged drone attack on the TurkStream pipeline, a crucial channel for Russian gas to Europe.

Amid the latest tensions, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius visited Kyiv to reaffirm Germany's unwavering support for Ukraine.
