Governor of Russia's Nizhny Novgorod Region Gleb Nikitin announced on Sunday that a drone hit an industrial facility about 400 kilometers east of Moscow. Russian authorities stated that the attack caused damage. An investigation into the case has been launched. STVR (Spravy) ↗
The Ukrainian side claims that the target of the attack was a large oil refinery in the Kstovo area. According to available statements, Kyiv thus hit a facility belonging to Russia's oil and energy infrastructure. However, Russian authorities only described the facility as an industrial site and did not disclose details about the extent of the damage. aktuality.sk ↗
The attack took place amid the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine has repeatedly attacked Russian oil and gas plants in the past. Kyiv justifies these strikes as a response to Russian attacks against Ukrainian infrastructure. teraz.sk ↗
The Russian side also reported drone attacks in other locations across the country. Detailed information about possible casualties or the extent of damage in the Nizhny Novgorod Region has not yet been provided. It is also not known whether the attack led to a halt in the refinery's operations or to a reduction in fuel supplies.
Further developments will depend on the results of the investigation and confirmation of the extent of damage to the industrial facility. Russian and Ukrainian claims about the specific target struck still differ. hnonline.sk ↗
