Russia says nearly 900 Ukrainian drones downed, Moscow region fuel depot reportedly burns

Russia's Defence Ministry reported that nearly 900 Ukrainian drones were downed overnight, with air defences intercepting the majority of them. This escalation in drone attacks is a significant development in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The increased targeting of Russian oil refineries and infrastructure by Ukraine is likely to have a ripple effect on global energy markets, particularly if these attacks disrupt Russia's oil production and export capabilities.

Why it matters

Russia's air defences intercepted nearly 900 drones overnight, and Ukraine continued to target Russian oil refineries. This escalation of the conflict could lead to further violence and instability in the region.
