Ukraine has been fending off a Russian military campaign since February 2022. Both sides conduct regular strikes hundreds of kilometres into enemy territory with missiles and drones.
Ukraine, which lacks the vast arsenal of missiles available to Moscow, has focused on making long-range drones to strike targets deep inside Russia.
Ukraine has recently increased the frequency of its attacks on Russian soil, particularly against oil refineries.
