Putin: Russia to Respond to Ukrainian Strikes with Several Times More Powerful Attacks.

Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) said it had thwarted a series of large-scale Ukrainian drone attacks targeting two military air bases deep inside Russian territory, according.

Earlier on Monday, Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) announced that it had carried out overnight strikes on an oil depot in Russia's Stavropol region, as well as several facilities at an oil terminal in the Krasnodar region.

According to Kyiv, Ukrainian forces also struck two Russian patrol boats in the Black Sea, as well as ferry infrastructure in occupied Crimea and at Port Kavkaz in the Kerch Strait.

Last week, reports indicated that Russian President Vladimir Putin does not intend to begin peace negotiations with Kyiv, with Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian oil refineries and port infrastructure reportedly reinforcing his determination to continue the war.
