Russia neutralised 114 Ukraine drones, one dead -Officials

In Krasnodar, an employee of a heating station was killed when a drone struck the facility near the Yuzhny train station, Regional Governor Venyamin Kondratyev said on Telegram.

Several administrative buildings at an oil refinery were also damaged in Severski district, he said.

Ukraine, which has battled a Russian offensive for more than two years, has in recent months upped its attacks on Russian territory, targeting energy sites.

Russian missile and drone strikes aimed at Ukraine’s energy infrastructure have crippled the country’s electricity generation capacity and have forced Kyiv to impose rolling blackouts and import electricity from the European Union.
