Ukrainian forces have struck three oil depots and a fuel facility in Russia’s southern Stavropol region this morning, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said.
The Ukrainian president said three Russian “shadow fleet” tankers were also hit in the Black Sea.
It comes after a major Russian aerial assault on Kyiv this morning, which Ukrainian authorities said killed at least one person and injured 16 others.
The attack on Ukraine’s capital is believed to be the biggest ballistic missile attack of the war.
The Kyiv government said firefighters were responding to blazes in five different districts after the attack, one of the biggest in recent weeks, hit residential buildings, office and industrial sites, a dormitory and vehicles.
Ukrainian foreign minister Andrii Sybiha said the raid involved “around four dozen” ballistic missiles, the largest number in a single attack since the war began.
The attack on Kyiv comes a day after Ukrainian drone strikes killed at least nine people at warehouses belonging to a major Russian shopping website.
Volodymyr Zelensky said the strikes targeted “significant logistical facilities”, accusing Wildberries of providing equipment for drones and navigation equipment for the Russian military.
