Ukraine’s massive drone strike on Moscow’s key refinery overnight laid bare a new phase. The Moscow Oil Refinery, a vital fuel hub, was hit again. Moscow’s air defenses claimed to down over 130 drones, but Kyiv’s strikes signal a push to turn the war’s tide.
Residents described “pure hell,” while Ukraine’s leader pushed the message abroad. The attack disrupts Moscow’s life, with airports and traffic affected. Russia’s defense says over 550 drones intercepted, but battlefield claims are unverified.
This strike exposes gaps in Moscow’s air shield. As Putin hosts ASEAN, Ukraine targets Crimea supply lines. The war now hits Russia’s heart, reshaping the conflict’s geopolitical landscape abruptly.
