The night of September 20, 2026, in the Moscow region was marked by significant events as Ukrainian drones struck a large oil refinery, while Russian air defense targeted residential buildings. These incidents occur amid new threats from the Russian Ministry of Defense, which announced an escalation of attacks on Kyiv.
Strikes on Ukrainian Warehouses
Russian forces continue to carry out strikes on warehouse facilities in Ukraine. Recent reports indicate that nearly half of all modern warehouse structures have been destroyed. This severely complicates logistical processes and the supply of necessary resources for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Threat to Western Regions of Ukraine
The mayor of Ivano-Frankivsk warned about potential strikes on the western regions of Ukraine. It has been noted that the following are at risk:
- stores;
- energy infrastructure;
- transport systems.
These statements indicate Russia's intention to intensify military actions in regions that were previously considered relatively safe.
