Russia, Ukraine trade accusations over strikes; 9 injured

Russia claims to have downed 645 Ukrainian drones across 13 regions, the Black Sea, Sea of Azov, and Crimea, while Ukraine reports 9 injured from Russian strikes. The scale of drone interceptions suggests a significant intensification of long-range drone warfare, though claims are unverified. This continues the established pattern of mutual accusations and aerial attacks, with no indication of de-escalation.
