Ukraine strikes Moscow oil refinery in major drone attack, disrupting flights and targeting Russian war revenue

Summary

Ukraine launched a major drone attack on a Moscow oil refinery for the second time in a week, sending plumes of black smoke over the capital and disrupting hundreds of flights at Moscow airports. The attack, one of the largest since Russia's full-scale invasion began over four years ago, is part of Ukraine's strategy to cut Moscow's war revenue by targeting oil facilities. The Russian Defense Ministry claims its air defenses shot down 555 Ukrainian drones overnight. The attack followed Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's coordination call with the U.S. and France, securing further support from the G7 summit. Zelenskyy says the attack is part of efforts to force Putin to negotiate.
