  "account": "Ukrainian drone attacks hit multiple Russian military sites and infrastructure overnight on August 24, 2026, according to the commander of Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces (SBS). The attacks spanned from occupied Ukraine and the Black Sea to southern Russia, targeting fighter jets, air-defense radars, fuel and propellant facilities, and vessels of Russia's sanctions-evading fleet. The breakdown of the strikes showed hits on a MiG-29 fighter jet at the Millerovo airbase in Rostov Oblast, a Ka-52 decoy helicopter, and four radar systems belonging to the 1st Separate Center of the SBS. Other targets included a fuel plant, a tank, two shadow-fleet vessels in the Black Sea, and several drone infrastructure components in occupied Ukrainian territories. This marks the third Russian fighter jet Ukrainian drones struck in two days, following a previous strike on a MiG-29 at Vityazevo in Krasnodar Krai on August 23.",
  "summary": "Four radar sets went down the same night, along with a plant SBS calls a solid-rocket-fuel works and two shadow-fleet ships—all named by Ukraine's drone commander.",
