Russian air defences intercepted 660 Ukrainian drones in a major nighttime attack on 12 Russian regions as well as the Russia-held Crimean peninsula, the Black Sea, and the Azov Sea, Russia’s Defence Ministry said on Friday. It appeared to be one of the biggest drone attacks on Russia and the annexed Crimea since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian-installed authorities in Crimea and Sevastopol city imposed a state of emergency on the peninsula on Friday. Crimea also suspended tourist activities and children’s summer camps until September. On June 21, Crimea halted all fuel sales due to shortages.
