Ukraine Drones Hit Russian Targets

Ukraine Drones Hit Russian Targets

The attack on the Tuapse refinery is the second in a week, highlighting Ukraine's intensified campaign against Russia's 'oil war chest.' Russian officials confirmed damage to transport infrastructure and at least one casualty following the overnight assault.

The drones, reportedly operated using a new internet-based guidance system, allow pilots to hit targets from over 500km away.

These strikes come as Kyiv seeks to demonstrate its growing domestic defense technology capabilities amid the ongoing conflict.
