| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Drones caused fires at Putin's oil facilities overnight into Saturday, Ukrainian officials said, in what appeared to be the latest attack on Moscow's vital industry. Authorities in the Rostov region said falling drone debris sparked a fire that damaged an oil depot and tanker in the port of Taganrog, while officials in the neighbouring Krasnodar region reported a fire breaking out at an oil depot in Armavir. 'Another facility of Russia's oil industry has been reached - Armavir,' Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote on X on Saturday of the attack in the Krasnodar region, noting that Armavir is '500 kilometres from our state border'. 'We are rightfully bringing the war back to where it came from,' he added. It was also reported on Saturday that Ukrainian drones had destroyed two Russian Tu-142 naval aircraft and an Iskander ballistic missile system. They were attacked at a military airfield in Taganrog, a port city on the Sea of Azov in Rostov Oblast, Unmanned Systems Forces commander Robert Brovdi said. |
