PUTIN HUMILIATED

Ukraine launched roughly 310 drones into Russia overnight, striking targets around St. Petersburg just as Putin's flagship economic forum was opening. The attacks hit the St. Petersburg Oil Terminal, the Kronstadt area where the Baltic Fleet corvette Boyki was in dry dock, the Progress plant tied to aviation and missile control systems, and other Russian oil infrastructure. The timing turned the forum into a public embarrassment: smoke was visible near the venue, air travel over St. Petersburg was suspended, residents filmed the strikes despite harsh new laws, and Russian commentators admitted Ukraine was landing blows against both real targets and the government's image.
