Overnight Ukrainian strikes hit Oryol and Saratov, damaging a plant and oil refinery
Ukrainian forces launched a massive overnight missile and drone attack on Russian territory, damaging an industrial facility in Oryol and an oil refinery in Saratov, where casualties were reported. Oryol Governor Andrei Klychkov said production facilities in the Sovetsky district were partially damaged during the repelled attack, without naming the plant or confirming casualties.
