Ukrainian Drone Attack Claims Life in Belgorod Region

A young man was killed and another injured when a Ukrainian drone hit their vehicle near a border village in the southwestern Belgorod region, authorities reported on Wednesday.

According to Russia’s Defense Ministry, their air defense systems intercepted a Ukrainian drone over the region at 1:40 p.m. local time.

Vyacheslav Gladkov, the Governor of Belgorod region, asserted that the drone specifically aimed at the passenger vehicle close to the village of Pervomaisky, situated less than 8 kilometers (4.5 miles) from the Ukrainian border in the Kharkiv region.

“The young man succumbed to his injuries at the scene,” Gladkov shared on Telegram. The other individual was taken to a medical facility in the Volokonovsky district but was later released for outpatient care.

Since the commencement of Russia’s extensive invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Ukrainian forces have regularly conducted drone and missile strikes on Belgorod and its neighboring border areas.

Ukraine Launches Record Number of Strikes on Russian Oil Refineries in November Текст: Ukraine carried out at least 14 drone attacks on Russian oil refineries in November in a new monthly record, BloombergreportedMonday, citing public statements from both countries. Kyiv has stepped up strikes on Russia’s energy infrastructure since August in a bid to undercut Moscow’s oil revenues, a key source of funding for its war effort. Among the refineries struck was theAfipsky plantnear Krasnodar, one of the largest in southern Russia with an annual capacity of 9.1 million tons. The facility had already been hit in September, when one of its units was damaged. Rosneft’s Ryazan refinery has been offline since mid-November after drones disabled the main refining unit, which accounts for nearly half of its total 17.1-million-ton annual capacity, Reutersreported. Another unit responsible for more than a quarter of output had been shut down following a drone strike on Oct. 24. Lukoil’s Volgograd refinery has also temporarily halted operations after damage to its primary oil processing unit, which is responsible for around 20% of its capacity of 13.7 million tons per year. Drones also hit the Orsknefteorgsintez refinery in Orsk, Orenburg region, located 1,400 kilometers from Ukraine. Russia’s average daily refining volume has fallen to around 5 million barrels per day as a result of the intensified campaign, down from the 5.3-5.5 million barrels per day typically processed in late autumn, Bloomberg cited analytics firm Kpler as saying. Ukraine also launched four strikes on oil-handling facilities at Black Sea ports,causingseveral days of delays in crude shipments after damage to the port of Novorossiysk. Ukrainian unmanned surface vessels targeted two sanctioned tankers carrying Russian oil in the Black Sea at the end of November, Bloomberg reported. Another tanker transporting Russian gasoil washitby explosions off the coast of Senegal late last month.
