Ukraine claims that it hit the Russian oil refinery in a huge drone attack

It was reported that Ukraine bombed a Russian oil refinery and targeted Moscow during an attack that included a wave of drones of at least 100 aircraft, one of the largest individual operations of its kind during the war.

Video footage of the BBC has shown a ball up to a refinery and a pumping station in the Ryazan region, southeast of Moscow, which Ukrainian officials said was a target.

Russia said it had brought down 121 drones targeting 13 regions, including Riazan and Moscow, but had not reported damage.

Elsewhere, the Ukrainian authorities said that three people were killed and another was injured when a Russian drone hit a residential building in the Kiev area.

André Kovalinko, head of the Ukrainian Center for the Anti -Information Information, said to Telegram that a refinery for oil refining in Rayzan, as well as the Karimni factory in Bryansk, was bombed. Kyiv says the facility produces missile components and other weapons.

Bloggers on the social networking site, Telegram, posted pictures and videos of burning fires in the city of Ryzan. The BBC’s health footage shows people fleeing the site in cars with the spread of fire.

The state -owned Russian Information Agency quoted a statement issued by the Karimni factory in Breansk as saying that the work was suspended after an attack in which six drones were used. Paville Malikov, the regional ruler, said emergency services responded.

The Kremlin admitted the attacks, but it did not mention damage or victims.

She claimed that she had destroyed 121 Ukrainian drones, including six over the Moscow area, 20 in the Rayzan region, and a number of them over the Breansk border area.

Sergey Sobianin, the mayor of Moscow, said that the city’s air defenses had intercepted attacks by Ukrainian drones in four locations.

He added that the air defenses, southeast of the capital, in Colomna and Romakkoy, also fell to drones without specifying their number. He said there was no harm.

The Russian news agencies quoted the Federal Air Agency, Rosavatia, as saying that two airports in Moscow, Fnokovo and Dumodidovo resumed flights after suspending operations for some time. Six flights were re -directed to other airports.

In the city of Kursk, the mayor of Kursk, Igor Kutsk, said that the attacks that took place during the night led to the destruction of electricity lines and the electricity cut off from one area.

In Ukraine, officials said its air defenses destroyed 25 out of 58 drones fired by Russia during the night.

The Ministry of the Interior said that the wreckage of a drone killed two men and a woman in Holvakha, Kiev, and another person was injured.
