Ukrainian drones struck the KINEF refinery in Russia's Leningrad region on Monday, causing major fires and damaging three oil processing units. Leningrad Governor Alexander Drozdenko said air defences shot down 113 drones targeting the region, but debris from one struck the roof of a multi-storey building in Vsevolozhsk, killing a resident. Three main processing units at the Kirishinefteorgsintez (KINEF) plant were damaged. KINEF, the largest refinery in northwest Russia and second largest in the country behind the Omsk facility, is owned by the Surgutneftegaz group and processes roughly 18 million tonnes of crude oil a year, about 7% of Russia's total refining capacity.
