Ukraine hits Russian energy targets and denies striking Kremlin-occupied nuclear plant

Kyiv said 212 of 299 Russian drones were shot down as it denied striking the occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant.

  • Ukraine launched fresh strikes on Russian energy sites overnight into Sunday, with drone debris igniting a fuel storage facility in Rostov and an oil refinery in Saratov.
  • Kyiv has stepped up attacks on Russian oil and gas facilities in recent months, arguing the energy sector directly fuels Moscow's more than four-year-old invasion.
  • Separately, Rosatom CEO Alexei Likhachev accused Ukraine of a "deliberate" attack on the Kremlin-occupied Zaporizhzhia plant, while Kyiv denied the claim as "yet another propaganda ploy."
  • Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, voiced "serious concern" following the incident, while Ukraine's state nuclear supervisory agency demanded onsite verification of Russian claims.
  • Elsewhere, Ukraine's air force reported Sunday it shot down 212 of 299 drones launched by Russia overnight, with 14 reaching targets and debris falling in five locations.
