Russian forces carried out strikes overnight against the Aerobavovna industrial facility in Kyiv, which Russia's Defence Ministry said produces aerostats used to deliver and control unmanned aerial vehicles, including Hornet-type drones.

The claim was reported by Russia's state-run TASS news agency.

Russia's Defence Ministry also said its forces struck a workshop in the Kyiv region used for the assembly, additional outfitting and storage of uncrewed boats in the village of Khotiv.

In addition, the ministry said a fuel depot in Boryspil that supplies Ukraine's armed forces with fuel and lubricants was hit.
