Drone strikes kill 7 across Ukraine, Russia; 2 die at Moldovan border
Overnight drone attacks by both Russia and Ukraine killed three in Ukraine and four in Russia, with two additional deaths reported at the Moldovan border, indicating spillover of the conflict. The incident at the border suggests cross-border impact and potential escalation beyond the two main belligerents. This continues the established pattern of reciprocal drone warfare, but the border deaths mark a notable geographic expansion of the conflict's human toll.

Russia Resumes Mass Strikes on Ukraine; Cross-Border Attack on Moldova Border
Russia has resumed large-scale missile and drone strikes across Ukraine, including Kyiv, following a three-day pause that coincided with US envoy visits. Concurrently, a Russian strike targeted a Ukraine-Moldova border crossing, killing two. These actions signal a clear escalation of hostilities and a rejection of diplomatic overtures, with high confidence in the resumption of strikes and medium confidence in the Moldova border incident.
