Ukrainian Defence Ministry States Strikes on Oil Refining Sites in Ryazan, Perm and Tatarstan
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence stated on its official account that an oil refinery was hit in Russia's Ryazan region and that long-range capabilities were used against oil-processing facilities in the Perm region and in Tatarstan, as well as against a site used to store and launch attack drones. Separately, Bloomberg reported that Ukraine has resumed attacks on oil refineries deep inside Russia, without naming locations in the material available to us.
