Ukraine hits Ilsky refinery again, marking 16th strike in the war
Ukraine says it struck the Ilsky oil refinery in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai overnight, igniting a major fire and highlighting at least the 16th strike on the facility since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion. The refinery is among southern Russia’s largest, producing about 6.6 million tonnes of fuel annually, while Moscow reported air defenses intercepting drones over eight regions including Crimea and the Black Sea.
