Ukraine just fired its biggest drone barrage of the war at Russia
Ukraine just fired almost 1,200 drones at Russia in one night.
That's one of the biggest aerial attacks since the war started, nearly five years ago.
Russia's Defence Ministry says it shot down most of them, across more than fifteen regions. But local officials say strikes still got through. At least seven people are dead, including a child. Seventeen are wounded.
Ukraine's army confirms it hit the Lukoil oil refinery in Volgograd. Four crude units, a hydrotreating unit, six storage tanks. Volgograd's governor says four workers died there and two were hurt. That one refinery processes millions of tonnes of crude a year.
Russia fired back overnight too, killing at least two people, including a teenager. Strikes hit two apartment blocks in Zaporizhzhia, wounding dozens, several of them children. Odesa was hit too, two dead. A hospital in Kyiv caught fire after a drone hit it, and one person was hurt.
Moscow's mayor says hundreds of drones hit the Moscow region overnight. All four of its airports had to restrict flights.
That's everything we know.
