Russia announced a 'massive' drone attack on an industrial enterprise, citing fires at the Lukoil refinery and power plant in Kstovo and a blaze at an oil refinery in Ufa that appears to have struck a key unit. The claim stands in contrast to a report in the Wall Street Journal that Ukraine has paused strikes on Russian refineries following pressure from the United States.
The next steps remain unclear, including whether the pause will hold and how the alleged damage will affect regional fuel supplies.
