Ukraine’s drone campaign targets Russian camps and oil hubs, hitting Bucha-linked forces

TL;DR Summary
Ukraine says its Unmanned Systems Forces hit Russian training camps used by the 3rd and 36th Armies and the 64th Brigade— tied to Bucha killings— in overnight strikes, part of a deep-“middle strike” campaign reaching roughly 20–100 kilometers behind the front and delivering 21 hits across two targets. The operation also targeted oil infrastructure and pipelines in western Russia and occupied Crimea, including the Saratov refinery and Druzhba-linked facilities; Kyiv reports casualties within the 64th Brigade and says drones now control airspace over some Russian logistic routes in occupied Luhansk Oblast.
