Russia: Ukrainian Strikes on Oil Refinery - Fire Erupted (vid)

Ukrainian forces announced that they struck the Ilsky oil refinery in Russia's Krasnodar region, causing a fire. Russian authorities confirmed the drone attack and damage to an oil product tank. Ukraine has intensified attacks on Russian energy infrastructure as peace talks mediated by the US have so far yielded no tangible results. The attack on the Ilsky refinery, one of the largest oil facilities in southern Russia, represents an escalation of Ukrainian offensive actions.
