Ukrainian drones attacked the Russian-occupied town of Oleshky, killing three and injuring three others, according to the region’s Russia-appointed governor. Vladimir Saldo condemned the attack, claiming it targeted civilians at an aid distribution point. Despite the incident, Ukraine denies any intent to strike civilian areas in occupied territories. The town has a pre-war population of around 20,000 and lies on the Dnipro river, a frontline in the ongoing conflict. Concurrently, reports emerged of Russian advances in eastern Ukraine and naval engagements in the Black Sea.
