Russia has launched an intense barrage of ballistic missiles and drones, killing at least nine people and wounding 33 civilians in the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, authorities said. — Ukrainian drones struck three Russian oil refineries overnight in the Russian republic of Bashkortostan, Mr Zelensky said on Saturday. The refineries “process millions of tons of oil each year” and are located nearly 994 miles from Ukraine, Mr Zelensky said on social media. The Russian online news outlet Astra reported on Saturday that a Ukrainian drone set an oil refinery in Ufa, the capital of Bashkortostan, ablaze. Ukraine’s almost daily long-range drone and missile strikes using domestically developed weapons have battered Russian oil facilities for months.
