In the fierce war between Russia and Ukraine, Ukraine released 62 drones on Russian territory. So six drones crashed in the area of an oil refinery in Slavyansk in Russia's southern Krasnodar region. According to the information, the refinery stopped working after the drone attack.
According to reports, the drone strikes carried out by Ukraine were larger than previous attacks and included steel balls. The Slavyansk Refinery is a private plant with a capacity of 4 million metric tons of oil per year, approximately 80,000 barrels per day. Ukraine's security service SBU and military drones attacked the Slavyansk refinery and military airfield in Russia's southern Krasnodar region overnight, a Ukrainian intelligence source in Kiev said.
Russia also accepted
Russia has seen an increase in Ukrainian attacks on its territory after opening a new front in the Kharkiv region of northeastern Ukraine earlier this month. President Vladimir Putin says that Russia is creating a buffer zone there to protect against such attacks.
Officials issued an official statement
We do not encourage attacks using US-supplied weapons inside Russian territory, this policy must change. The comments came as US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said in Kiev that the US does not encourage Ukraine to attack targets inside Russia with US-supplied weapons. But he believes this is a decision Kiev must take. Crimea told Russia on Sunday that its forces had captured a village in the Kharkiv region. They have defeated Ukrainian units at the front. Russia annexed Crimea in 2014 and its forces control four other regions. Which is about 18 percent of Ukraine. Now considered part of Russia. That stance has been rejected by Ukraine and its Western allies.
