On the other side of the border, a Ukrainian missile strike damaged a warehouse belonging to the Russian e-commerce company Ozon in the city of Taganrog (southwest), among other things, according to Rostov Region Governor Yuri Slyusar.
In Samara, a drone strike targeted an industrial facility, said Regional Governor Vichislav Fedorishev, without naming it. There are many large oil refineries in this region.
The Reuters news agency notes that it is unable to independently verify the information provided by the authorities of the two warring countries.
Last night, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy assured that Kyiv is ready to accept a proposal from Washington to mutually halt attacks on energy infrastructure—but on the condition that his country’s allies guarantee that Moscow is genuinely willing to end the war that broke out in 2022.
