Russia Moves to Bolster Defenses After Airfield Strikes

Russia has taken steps to bolster its defenses after a series of attacks deep inside its border that it blames on Kiev, while Moscow’s forces launched drones and missiles into southern Ukraine.

Several villages in the Zaporizhzhia region of Ukraine were attacked by drones and S-300 surface-to-air missiles overnight, the governor said. Oleksandr Starukh said on Wednesday. He said more than 20 houses collapsed and three people were injured, including a 15-year-old girl. Six additional drones were shot down.
