Ukraine strikes Russian oil refineries again, killing two

Russia claims Ukraine attacked its oil refineries again overnight, with at least two people reportedly killed in the strikes. The attacks could reduce Russia's diesel exports, according to Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak. Novak said three oil refineries and a gas chemical plant were hit, with one facility sustaining minor damage. Two men were reportedly killed in a drone attack in the Samara region, according to Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev, though the information has not been independently confirmed. Ukraine has not commented on the attacks. The strikes come after a reported pause in such attacks, which Novak said had resumed. U.S. President Donald Trump had reportedly pressured Ukraine to hold back, and the strikes have been among Ukraine's most effective operations against Russia, targeting oil revenues that fund the war.
