A massive fire broke out in Perm, Russia, at the LUKOIL-Permnaftorgsintez plant, one of Russia’s largest oil refineries. Online reports suggest this occurred following an attack on the plant’s premises.
This morning, drones launched a massive attack on the Russian city of Ryazan. As a result of the strikes, a Wildberries marketplace warehouse and a local oil refinery caught fire. The region’s governor confirmed the fires at the city’s industrial facilities.
