Ukrainian Drone Strike Halts Russia’s Fourth-Largest Oil Refinery

This attack is part of an intensified campaign by Ukraine to target Russian oil refining, storage, and export infrastructure, which has also recently led to a temporary suspension of oil exports from the key Novorossiysk port. . . . ."
