Russian forces conducted large-scale missile and drone strikes across multiple Ukrainian regions overnight on 4–5 July, the fourth large-scale combined assault since 1 June. Targets included oil depots, UAV control points, and other military and infrastructure sites, with regions including Odessa, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy and Crimea affected. Reporting confirms at least 22 fatalities in the Kyiv region and highlights shortfalls in Ukrainian air defence, particularly Patriot interceptor supplies. No quantified insured loss has been reported.

Impact verdict

Medium impact. Loss pathway: Strikes targeted Ukrainian oil depots (neftebazy), UAV control points, transport infrastructure and other facilities across roughly half of Ukraine's regions, with confirmed civilian fatalities in Kyiv. This represents the fourth large-scale combined missile-and-drone assault since 1 June, indicating a sustained campaign against energy and military assets. Limits: No insured facility has been named, no quantified property damage assessment has been published, and most directly affected assets are either state-owned or military in nature; cumulative attrition rather than any single incident appears the relevant loss driver for the London Market.
