Zelensky Confirms St. Petersburg Drone Strike Ahead of Putin’s Forum Finale
Overnight on June 6, Ukraine launched extensive drone strikes across multiple Russian regions, with some targets located up to 1,000 kilometers inside Russian territory. Strikes reportedly hit naval arsenals and bases near St. Petersburg, including the 15th Arsenal in Leningrad Oblast where missiles and ammunition are stored, causing a fire and secondary detonations. Additionally, an oil depot in Krasnodar Krai, a key logistics hub for Russian forces, was targeted by drones. These attacks precede the final day of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and follow similar strikes on Russian oil infrastructure days prior.
