Around 100 drones attacked St. Petersburg overnight, setting a major oil terminal ablaze, according to Russian officials. Ukraine appears to have again targeted Russia's oil sector. Russian air defense shot down at least 144 drones over the Leningrad region, causing fires, power outages, and minor injuries. The burning terminal is the largest in the Baltic Sea area. The U.S. has urged Ukraine to stop striking Russian energy sites amid a dispute over diesel. Ukraine says attacks will continue as Russia targets its power infrastructure.
