Ukraine said that it hit a Russian export-oriented refinery and oil-pumping station in Kirishi near the Baltic coast, as Kyiv ramps up attacks ahead of planned Victory Day ceasefires.

Ukrainian drones hit three primary crude processing units overnight at the Kirishi refinery and a fuel tank at the nearby pumping station, which services flows of crude and petroleum products to the Baltic port of Primorsk, the country’s Security Service SBU said on Telegram.
