Russia and Ukraine are bombarded with air attacks night after night. Ukraine is specifically targeting fuel supplies – and, according to a media report, has hit again.

According to media reports, a fuel depot was attacked by Ukrainian drones in the Russian region of Ulyanovsk on the Volga. Reservoirs belonging to the company NS-Oil were hit, reported the Ukrainian Telegram channel Exilenova. In the photos and videos published there, fires can be seen that are said to have come from the oil storage facility.

There is currently no official confirmation from Russia. Late in the evening, the Russian military only reported the downing of 57 drones. Drone alarms have been sounded in numerous regions.

Ukraine has been defending itself against the Russian war of aggression for more than three and a half years.
