Ukrainian forces conducted overnight drone attacks on industrial facilities located in two Russian cities situated along the Volga River, according to regional officials on Saturday.
Samara region Governor Vyacheslav Fedorischev confirmed that the aerial strikes targeted industrial sites in Syzran and Novokuibyshevsk, stating that the assault was still ongoing as of his announcement.
While the governor did not specify which particular facilities were hit during the attack, both municipalities are home to petroleum refining operations that have faced repeated targeting throughout the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
