Russia said on Sunday that its forces launched strikes on Ukrainian facilities while Ukraine, on the same day, reported a series of deep strikes targeting assets well within Russian territory over the past 24 hours.

In an official statement, Russia's Defense Ministry said that over the past day, Russian troops struck 146 locations in Ukraine, targeting transport infrastructure, ammunition and military supply depots, drone production and storage facilities, and temporary deployment points for Ukrainian troops and foreign mercenaries.

The ministry also said that Ukrainian forces had launched large-scale attacks using drones and missiles against Russian territory between Saturday and Sunday in an attempt to disrupt the State Duma elections; in response, Russian forces would continue and intensify the use of precision-guided weapons to strike military targets in Kiev.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday that Ukraine had launched long-range strikes against Russia's Moscow region that day, hitting a key facility in the Russian oil industry and a logistics site. Additionally, Ukraine struck a facility in Russia's Voronezh region.

The 3rd Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported on Sunday that Ukrainian forces had secured control over parts of the territory during a counteroffensive in the northern Donetsk region.

Also on the same day, Zelensky said that he had spoken by phone with U.S. President Donald Trump that day, and the two sides agreed to hold a meeting in New York in the near future.

Zelensky remarked that this meeting "could bring about significant changes" and noted that the diplomatic process is currently moving forward. He mentioned the recent visit to Kiev by U.S. Presidential Envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, saying that in-depth discussions on key details had taken place; the Ukrainian side proposed measures regarding de-escalation, as well as issues concerning energy security, food security, and the protection of civilians.
