The attacks, involving missiles, drones, and guided bombs, aimed to degrade Ukraine’s operational capabilities ahead of potential large offensives.

Ukrainian air defense allegedly intercepted 2 Iskander-K missiles and 23 UAVs, while 10 decoy UAVs disappeared. The Ukrainian military confirmed damage in the Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Mykolaiv, Kyiv regions.

The objectives of the strike have been achieved. All designated objects are affected.
In Mykolaiv region, an Iskander-M missile strike crippled the Voznesensk military airfield, destroying military radar landing systems and navigation infrastructure, disabling the base for night operations. The facility had served as a key hub for Ukrainian drone launches, including reconnaissance and combat models.
A logistics base in Mykolaiv city, where a sea port used for maritime drone operations is located, was destroyed by precision strikes igniting a 500-square-meter fire that consumed satellite navigation gear and lithium-ion batteries.
A series of explosions thundered in the central Dnipropetrovsk region with strikes recorded in different settlements. According to local reports, the wreckage of intercepted Iskander-K missiles inflicted damage in the towns of Podgorodnoe, Volosskoe and the city of Dnipro.

Three Ukrainian soldiers were reported killed, and a supply warehouse servicing the Kupyansk front was damaged. Nearby residential areas suffered collateral damage when Ukrainian air defenses intercepted missiles, with one civilian killed and over 30 wounded from falling debris.

The strikes coincided with the final hours of Russian-US moratorium on attacking energy facilities, set to expire on April 18. Despite Kyiv violating the agreement with daily strikes, the overnight attacks avoided Ukrainian power infrastructure, possibly reflecting ongoing backchannel talks between Moscow and Washington.
