Moscow experienced its most significant drone attack since the start of the war in Ukraine, with multiple strikes reported against a local oil refinery. Footage circulating online depicts both successful and unsuccessful interceptions by Russian air defenses. One oil storage tank cover was reportedly destroyed by a strike, potentially impacting Russia’s fuel supply. The attack raises concerns about escalating attacks on Russian soil and the vulnerability of critical infrastructure. Russia, a major oil producer, is now reportedly seeking to import gasoline by sea to mitigate a potential fuel crisis. Ukraine has not officially claimed responsibility for the attack, but Russia has accused Kyiv of targeting a civilian bus in the area.
