On April 28th, Russian forces launched another series of strikes across Ukraine. Depleted Ukrainian air defense can no longer repel either night of day attacks.
One of the most massive waves of drone strikes targeted the city of Cherkassy on the morning of April 28th. Russian Geran-type kamikaze drones struck the city’s international airport. Multiple explosions thundered in the area of aviation hangars and storage facilities, with at least ten impacts recorded. According to local reports, the attack destroyed a workshop and warehouse used for assembling and storing Ukrainian military drones.

The Ukrainian military confirmed the loss of a Su-27 fighter jet, lost during an attempted interception of the incoming drones. While Kyiv attributed it to unclear circumstances, Russian sources suggest the jet was either hit by drone shrapnel or fell victim to friendly fire, probably when trying to repel the attack in Cherkassy. This marks at least the second time a Ukrainian fighter has been downed while engaging Russian loitering munitions, following a similar incident involving a MiG-29 in 2022.
Beyond Cherkasy, Russian drones and missiles destroyed military targets in the eastern Sumy region, preventing the deployment of Ukrainian reserves near the Russian border. Strikes also damaged the local Impulse plant, used including for cluster munitions production, and the Shostka Chemical Plant, where weapons were stored and military equipment repaired.
Russian drones were also filmed flying over Dnipropetrovsk region, where the locals note the daily increasing intensity of strikes.
Meanwhile, Ukraine attempted another massive drone offensive against Russian territory overnight, with 115 UAVs intercepted, mostly over Bryansk region, where one civilian was killed and infrastructure was damaged. Additional drones were shot down over Crimea, Kursk, and Belgorod, though Russian air defenses largely prevented significant losses.
As both sides intensify their drone campaigns, the conflict continues to evolve into a war of attrition, with strikes pounding rear logistics, industry, and military facilities. While Russia maintains pressure on Ukrainian military infrastructure, Kyiv’s persistent drone raids demonstrate its ability to retaliate with low effectiveness.
