In a significant escalation, a Russian drone strike hit a residential building in Dolynska, central Ukraine, injuring a mother and her two children. The overnight attack forced the evacuation of 38 apartments, according to Andriy Raikovych, the Kirovohrad region's governor.

The Ukrainian military reported that a total of 176 drones were launched, with 103 successfully shot down. Electronic countermeasures apparently prevented 67 drones from reaching their intended targets. The incident affected multiple regions, including Kirovohrad, Kharkiv, Kyiv, and Cherkasy.
