During a wave of attacks across the Ukrainian capital, a Russian drone crashed into a block of apartments in eastern Kyiv, killing six people and injuring scores more. One Kyiv resident named Vita reported how the drone had penetrated the building and exploded on the opposite side while rescue personnel combed through the rubble in the Lisovyi district.
With drone strikes on one of Russia’s largest export terminals in Novorossiysk, on the Black Sea coast, Ukraine intensified its assaults on Russia’s oil infrastructure. A ship and a block of apartments were damaged when the Sheskharis oil refinery caught fire, according to officials.
According to Krasnodar Governor Veniamin Kondratyev, the attack damaged a container terminal and the main oil depot, injuring three crew members and another man. Mayor Andrei Kravchenko proclaimed a state of emergency and halted oil exports, according to Reuters.
Ukraine launched long-range “Long Neptune” cruise missiles during its overnight attacks on Russia, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky, though he did not say what the rockets were aimed at. Zelensky denounced Russia’s nocturnal strikes as heinous and well-planned, claiming that dozens of high-rise buildings had been damaged and that 430 drones and 18 missiles had been launched.
