Russia and Ukraine have traded air strikes, after a week of intensifying rhetoric in which Russia tested a new missile on Ukraine. Russia has made close to 1,500 strikes on Ukraine since Sunday evening on about half of the country's regions causing dozens of injuries, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Russia launched 188 drones on the night of 25-26 November, marking a new record number. Air defence forces have downed 76 UAVs, while 95 drones have disappeared from radar due to electronic warfare actions.
