Ukraine Strikes St. Petersburg During Putin’s Davos Event
Ukraine conducted a significant drone attack early Wednesday, targeting infrastructure including an oil export terminal near St. Petersburg, the site of a major economic forum hosted by President Putin. This strikes deep into Russian territory, demonstrating Kyiv’s reach and aiming to embarrass the Kremlin amidst stalled battlefield progress and deadlocked peace talks. The broader Leningrad region and Moscow also faced drone incursions, with Russian air defenses reportedly intercepting numerous aircraft.
