"Drone Attacks Target Russian Oil Facilities in St. Petersburg and Putin's Hometown"
TL;DR
A Ukrainian drone struck an oil refinery in St. Petersburg, reportedly dodging Russia’s advanced air defense system, the S-400 Triumph, with sources confirming it was a Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR) operation. The drone caused damage to storage tanks before crashing into the refinery, prompting St Petersburg’s Pulkovo airport to suspend flights. This marks the second drone attack on St. Petersburg in recent weeks, with the S-400 system being criticized for its ineffectiveness.
