Ukraine Strikes Russian Oil Targets

Ukrainian drones strike Russian oil facilities in Rostov and Krasnodar, sparking fires and sending a defiant message from Zelenskyy as the war returns to Russia’s doorstep—over 500km from Ukraine’s border. As Ukraine ramps up its drone and missile tech to cripple Russia’s war-funding oil industry, Moscow retaliates with long-range strikes on Ukrainian cities and power grids, hinting at more “systemic” attacks on Kyiv. Zelenskyy urgently seeks U.S. Patriot missiles to fend off Russian ballistic missiles, while a Russian drone’s crash in Romania—wounding two—raises alarms of conflict spilling into NATO territory. Meanwhile, a Ukrainian drone hit the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant under Russian control, creating a hole in a turbine hall; Rosatom claims the drone’s fiber-optic trail suggests intent, though Ukraine remains silent. With the plant’s reactors still needing cooling, the world watches as the war’s dangerous escalation threatens global stability.
