Ukrainian drone hits Russia's third-biggest refinery, damage not critical
© Reuters. A general view shows the Taneco refinery complex, which is part of Russia's oil producer Tatneft group of companies, in Nizhnekamsk, in the Republic of Tatarstan, Russia, July 26, 2017. Picture taken July 26, 2017.
The industry source, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity, said personnel was returning to the plant. "Equally important is that the Russian terrorists are receiving responses to their strikes," he said in his nightly video address."Each time, longer-range responses."Another Ukrainian intelligence source said Ukrainian-made drones had also hit a Russian plant producing long-range Shahed attack drones, causing"significant damage".
The attacks on Russian refineries have raised concern in Washington about the potential for escalation with Russia. Ukraine has carried out a series of high-profile attacks deep inside Russia meant to either undermine Russia's war machine or, as with a 2023 drone strike on the Kremlin, bring the reality of war to the very heart of Russia.
