Ukraine war briefing: Russian drone factory attacked, 1,000km away in Tatarstan

16 juin 2025 à 03:02

Factory making Iranian-designed Shahed drones is hit, far from Russia-Ukraine border; Russian strikes damage energy and other civilian facilities in Poltava oblast. What we know on day 1,209

Ukraine’s military said on Sunday it had attacked a Russian drone factory in the city of Yelabuga in Russia’s Tatarstan region. The target is around 1,000km from Ukraine. The Ukrainian military general staff said the factory produced, tested, and launched drones at Ukraine, in particular against energy and civil infrastructure. Videos on social media showed an explosion said to be at the factory in Yelabuga, also known as Alabuga, which builds Iranian-designed Shahed drones. The Russian local governor confirmed the attack.

Russian forces hit the Kremenchuk oil refinery in Ukraine’s Poltava region with missiles and drones, Russia’s defence ministry said on Sunday. Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, denounced the attack on the central Poltava region as a vile strike against Ukrainian energy infrastructure, which he said occurred “after the Americans asked us not to strike at Russian energy facilities”. Ukrainian officials said the strikes mainly hit energy, agricultural and civilian installations.

Russian forces have advanced in northern Sumy Oblast and near Kupyansk, Siversk, Chasiv Yar, and Toretsk, according to the Institute for the Study of War. Russia’s defence ministry claimed on Sunday that its forces had taken control of the village of Malynivka in the Donetsk region, known in Russia as Ulyanovka. Zelenskiy said on Saturday that Ukrainian forces had recaptured Andriivka village in north-eastern Sumy as part of a drive to expel Russian forces from the area. Neither side’s claims were independently confirmed.

The Ukrainian office for the return of prisoners of war confirmed on Sunday that Russia had returned 1,200 bodies to Ukraine as part of continuing exchanges.

A building used by Boeing in Kyiv was badly damaged in a recent large-scale Russian air attack, the Financial Times reported on Sunday, citing two Boeing employees, three Ukrainian officials and the head of the American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine. There had been “no operational disruption”, Andriy Koryagin, deputy general director of Boeing’s operation in Ukraine, told the newspaper, and none of its employees were harmed.

  • American finishes two shots clear of Bob MacIntyre

  • Spaun claims first major title of his career

Where on earth to start with this? A chaotic conclusion to the US Open should have carried an X-rated certificate. You will rarely see anything like it.

There will be analysis and lots of it over whether or not Oakmont delivered a great US Open, a pathetic US Open or anything in between. What cannot be denied was the level of drama as holes ticked down. JJ Spaun stood tallest to earn the biggest win of his career. One under par equals $4.3m.
