A drone attacked the Volgograd oil refinery, Russia, resulting in a fire at the facility, according to the Russian telegram channels RIA Novosti, Mash, and Shot.
According to Shot, several loud explosions occurred in the vicinity of the enterprise in the Chervonoarmiysky district of the Volgograd region at around 2:30 in the morning, preceded by the distinct sound of a UAV.
The channel suggests that Ukrainian drones were allegedly jammed by electronic warfare means, resulting in their crash onto the refinery's premises and causing a fire, which was promptly extinguished. There have been no casualties or injuries reported.
The attack and fire at the plant were confirmed by the governor of the region, Andrey Bocharov.
