What is known about the attack on the refinery in the Russia's Krasnodar Krai region
It is noted that there were three explosions in total, and local residents heard the characteristic sound of engines, probably drones, echoing in the sky.
It is alleged that the drones were flying toward the oil refinery, but were shot down by air defense on their approach to it and allegedly crashed several kilometers away. Russian propagandists say the drones were Ukrainian.
There is no official data on the damage and casualties. The local governor did not report anything about the incident.
It is worth noting that the Afipsky oil refinery was previously attacked by drones and burned as a result of UAV strikes - it happened in October last year. It should be added that, according to sources, this refinery was attacked by the SBU, and expensive equipment was damaged as a result of the special operation.
