Russian refinery burns after Ukrainian drone strikes. At least one oil refinery was hit.
There were no injuries, said Governor Azarov. The facility in the city of Novokuybyshevsk was not damaged. The fire at the other refinery in Kuibyshev was extinguished. On Friday, the Financial Times reported that the USA wanted to stop Ukraine from carrying out attacks on Russian oil facilities. The background is the fear of an escalation and rising oil prices worldwide before the US presidential election.
