A Ukrainian drone attack on a Russian oil depot near Sochi caused a large fire, prompting temporary flight closures at the airport. Simultaneously, both sides engaged in reciprocal attacks, with Russia reporting numerous downed drones and Ukraine detailing missile and drone strikes inflicting casualties. Despite ongoing hostilities, including a recent deadly Russian attack, Ukraine announced a prisoner exchange of 1,200 individuals with Russia, following negotiations. These attacks follow President Trump's ultimatum for a peace resolution.
