Russia and Ukraine traded large-scale long-range attacks overnight, with Russian strikes killing at least six people in Ukraine’s Kharkiv and Sumy regions, according to Ukrainian authorities. Moscow said its air defences intercepted 605 Ukrainian drones over Russia and occupied Crimea. 🇺🇦
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy later said Ukrainian forces struck the Bashneft-Novoil refinery in Bashkortostan and the Slavnet-Yanos refinery in Yaroslavl Oblast. Russian authorities had not immediately commented on those claims. ⛽
The attacks followed a Russian barrage around Kyiv on August 5 that Ukrainian officials said killed 17 people and wounded at least 44. The Associated Press reported that Ukraine’s shortage of Patriot interceptors had limited its ability to stop ballistic missiles.
The exchange underscores how the war now reaches far beyond front-line positions. Carnegie analysis found refinery attacks can disrupt fuel production and local distribution, but warned that tactical damage does not automatically eliminate Russia’s crude-export capacity or create a lasting nationwide fuel shortfall. 🛢️
