Ukraine says it hits 2 major Russian oil refineries hours after Zelenskyy’s meeting with Trump

  • On Wednesday, Ukrainian forces struck the Ryazan oil refinery, located about 400 kilometers from Ukraine, causing fires at the strategic facility.
  • President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited Washington on Tuesday for talks with President Donald Trump, seeking vital U.S. assistance to bolster Ukraine's defense against its larger neighbor.

  • Air defenses shot down 295 Ukrainian drones overnight, according to the Russian Defense Ministry, while Ryazan Gov. Pavel Malkov confirmed six people were hospitalized following the refinery fire.
  • Discussions continue regarding licenses to manufacture Patriot missile systems to help Ukraine counter Russian ballistic missiles, following Zelenskyy's meeting with more than 60 U.S. senators to push for increased sanctions.
