Drones Over Ukraine as Kyiv Targets Russian Oil Hubs

Russia launched 453 drones across Ukraine overnight, with 409 neutralised and 13 locations hit, including Stryi and Kharkiv; casualties reported in Izyum and Kharkiv region. Ukraine responded by striking oil facilities in Russia’s Tatarstan and the Slavyansk-ECO refinery in Krasnodar Krai. Both sides are targeting energy infrastructure ahead of winter. Zelenskyy said he would attend the G20 in Miami to meet Putin, but Moscow called such a meeting impossible, while Lavrov signalled there would be no end to Russia’s ‘special military operation’ in peace talks.
