US EditionUkraine War Latest: Russia Launches Largest Attack of War, Targeting Ukrainian Regions Far From Front Lines; F-16 Pilot Killed in Attack
- On the night of June 29, Russia carried out its most extensive aerial assault on Ukraine since the start of the war, deploying 477 drones and 60 missiles across several regions.
- This assault followed a surge in bombardments during May and June and occurred at the same time Ukraine officially exited the international treaty that prohibits the use of anti-personnel mines, a pact to which Russia has never been a signatory.
- The strike damaged civilian infrastructure in Cherkasy Oblast, injured a child in Smila, and killed F-16 pilot Maksym Ustymenko after he destroyed seven aerial targets and did not eject from his plane.
- Ukrainian troops have successfully stopped the Russian push into northern Sumy, securing the frontline near the border and blocking the movement of approximately 50,000 Russian soldiers, including elite airborne and marine units, to other sectors.
- At a Brussels summit, EU leaders emphasized delivering more air defense, anti-drone systems, and ammunition to support Ukraine’s defense amid ongoing attacks, while US lawmakers planned new sanctions after talks with Trump.
