Ukraine conducted several drone strikes in Kaluga and Kursk last night, causing fires at a factory and an oil depot.

The war between Russia and Ukraine is intensifying with new attacks and new concerns over the weapons being used by both sides. Vladimir Putin says Russia’s use of a nuclear-capable weapon is a response to Ukraine firing American weapons deeper into Russia for the first time.

The Rostov region in Russia may be the next target of Ukrainian missile attacks, reports "The Wall Street Journal". This region is a key strategic point for Russian forces. Russian airports and ammunition depots are at risk following Ukraine's receipt of permission to attack targets within Russia.
