On November 7-8, Ukrainian drones targeted a key bridge and power stations in Russia's Rostov Oblast, causing traffic closures and blackouts.

The Mius River bridge, which was struck by a Ukrainian FP-2 drone, links the southern Russian region with Mariupol, Melitopol, and Crimea.

Ukraine also struck a Russian missile launcher and air defense system in Bryansk Oblast, while French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot announced that Europe would participate in upcoming peace talks between Ukraine and Russia in Abu Dhabi.
