A friend passed along a Reuters report this morning that St. Petersburg, Russia was hit by a Ukrainian drone. This happened a couple of days ago.

Reuters reported:

Jan 18 (Reuters) - Ukraine hit targets in Russia's St Petersburg overnight using a domestic-produced drone that flew 1,250 km (775 miles), a Ukrainian government minister was quoted as saying by Interfax-Ukraine news agency on Thursday.

A Ukrainian military source told Reuters earlier that an oil terminal in Russia's second city, located some 850 km (530 miles) from the nearest section of the Ukrainian border, was targeted as part of a "new stage of work in this region".

I am checking with Asya to confirm the story.
