History
- 2026-11-11: One side only. All accounts relay Russian officials. Meduza cites the governor, who says 150 drones were shot down over the region. TASS reports workers wounded in Ust-Luga and two people killed in Smolensk region in the same wave of attacks. No independent confirmation of the damage.
- 2026-11-11: Corroborated. Ukraine's Security Service now says it carried out an overnight operation against oil and port infrastructure in Leningrad region, so both sides describe a strike there.
