A huge fire has broken out at another Russian oil refinery following a wave of Ukrainian drone attacks.
Ukrainian drones struck the refinery in Russia’s central city of Ryazan, some 120 miles southeast of Moscow, on Friday, according to the commander of Ukraine’s drone forces.
Commander Robert Brovdi said that his troops also hit 23 military targets and facilities in Russia and Ukraine overnight.
Russia’s defence ministry claimed on Friday to have downed 355 Ukrainian drones over Russian regions through the night.
Three people were killed and 12 injured in Ryazan, where strikes damaged high-rise apartment buildings and hit local industry, according to regional governor Pavel Malkov.
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky meanwhile called for Moscow to be punished after visiting a destroyed Kyiv residential building where a Russian missile strike killed 24 people, including three children.
Rescue workers ended search operations at the devastated building, which was struck this week during Russia's heaviest air attack on the Ukrainian capital this year.
Russia launched more than 1,500 drones and dozens of missiles in attacks across Ukraine this week over two consecutive days, Ukrainian officials said.
