A Russian strike on a Ukrainian gas production site in the Poltava region ignited a fire overnight, according to Ukraine's emergency services.

This incident is part of a broader pattern of escalated attacks by Russian forces targeting Ukraine's energy sector. In recent months, Russian troops have intensified their strikes specifically on Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
