Ukraine is once again attacking oil refineries inside Russia. These facilities turn raw oil into fuel for cars and tanks.
NASA satellites have spotted large fires at one of these sites. The strikes come after a break in such attacks.
This move is significant because it goes against what Donald Trump has wanted. Trump has pushed for Ukraine to stop targeting these sites to avoid driving up global gas prices. By attacking them again, Ukraine is showing it is sticking to its own military strategy.
Russia confirmed there was a "massive" drone attack. They described the target only as an "industrial enterprise," but reports confirm it was an oil facility. In a separate incident, drones also hit the area of Nizhny Novgorod.
At the same time, Russia has been launching its own attacks on Ukraine, specifically targeting power plants and cutting off electricity for many people there.
The situation remains tense as both sides continue to use drones and missiles to hit each other's energy infrastructure.
