Zelenskiy says Ukraine will resume strikes on Russian refineries, FT reports
The drone strike started a fire at the refinery about 300 kilometres southeast of Moscow, Russia's Defence Ministry and Ryazan Governor Pavel Malkov said.
In Ukraine, more than 360 Russian drones targeted Kirovohrad, a central region that has been hit less hard than others closer to Russia, in attacks that killed three and injured six.
Mr. Zelenskyy complained that, despite going along with Trump's demand for a truce, Ukraine in recent days was denied the usual Western intelligence on Russian ballistic missile strikes and limits were placed on its use of US-made Starlink communication terminals.
