Ukraine strikes key Moscow oil refinery for the second time in a week
Ukraine has launched its largest drone offensive on Moscow in two years, according to Russian state-run news agency TASS, in an attack that damaged a key oil refinery, caused fires, and sent debris raining down across the region.
Air defenses shot down at least 194 drones bound for the Russian capital overnight into Thursday, according to Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin. Thatâs far higher than other days of heavy attacks in recent months, when drones only numbered in the double digits.
The barrage was part of a larger Ukrainian attack over a broad swath of Russia, with air defenses intercepting 555 drones, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense â including over the Sea of Azov.
Ukraine hits Moscow oil refinery and disrupts commercial flights with major drone attack
Ukraine hit a major Moscow oil refinery for a second time in a week and disrupted commercial flights at Moscow airports in one of its biggest drone attacks since Russiaâs all-out invasion of its neighbor more than four years ago, Russian officials said Thursday.
The attack came hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he had held âan important coordination callâ with U.S. President Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron that may âbring about significant change.â
Zelenskyy said Wednesday his country had won key pledges of further support from world leaders attending the G7 summit in France, including the United States.

Russian oil refinery on fire after barrage of Ukrainian drones strike Moscow
Scale of long range-attack catches Muscovites by surprise, prompting panicked messages on social media
Ukrainian drones have hit several locations across Moscow, including setting an oil refinery on fire, sending out flames and towering plumes of smoke over the city and forcing the capital’s airports to suspend flights.
The scale of the long-range attack, apparently designed to shut down operations at the key oil refinery in the Kapotno area, caught most Muscovites by surprise in a city that does not typically warn residents with air raid alarms, and prompted panicked messages on social media.
Footage posted online showed three plumes of smoke rising from the refinery. The strike was the second in two days on the facility, in what the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, then called “a just response to Russian strikes”.
