A large-scale drone attack launched by Ukraine has resulted in a significant fire at an oil refinery in Moscow, Russian authorities have reported. At least 17 individuals have sustained injuries as a result of the strikes. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy characterized the attack as a “justified response” to recent deadly Russian attacks targeting Kyiv. The incident marks a notable escalation in Ukraine’s ability to strike deep within Russian territory. While the extent of the damage to the refinery is still being assessed, the attack represents a strategic blow to Russia’s energy infrastructure. Russian officials have condemned the strikes as a terrorist act. The attack occurred amidst ongoing conflict and heightened tensions between the two nations.
