Ukrainian drone attack on Sochi disrupts airport, fuel depots ablaze

Overnight Ukrainian drone strikes hit two fuel depots near Sochi airport, forcing an 11-hour operating restriction that delayed or canceled over 100 flights and diverted others. One depot sits ~100m from airport grounds, and thick smoke blanketed the city. This is a continuation of Ukraine's long-range strike campaign against Russian logistics, but the proximity to a major civilian airport and fuel infrastructure marks a notable escalation in targeting precision.
