Ukraine attacked a Russian oil refinery in Kaluga region with drones early on Friday, causing damage in an operation that was conducted by the GUR military spy agency, a Ukrainian intelligence source told Reuters. Ukraine was checking the extent of the damage, the source said.
The claims have not been independently verified.

Kaluga region is to the south-west of Moscow region.
