Ukraine launched drone attacks on Russia’s Kushchevsk military airfield in the southern Krasnodar region, as well as two oil refineries, a source with knowledge of the operation told CNN.
The source dubbed the operation “explosive,” and said that fires broke out at the three locations.
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) “continues to effectively hit military and infrastructure facilities” in Russia, the source said, in a bid to reduce Moscow’s “potential for warfare.”
The governor of Krasnodar region, Veniamin Kondratyev, had earlier said a Russian oil refinery was impacted after Kyiv launched drones in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The governor of Krasnodar region, Veniamin Kondratyev, had earlier said a Russian oil refinery was impacted after Kyiv launched drones in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Russian state media outlet TASS reported that the oil refinery in Slavyansk-on-Kuban had partially suspended operations, citing Eduard Trudnev, security director for the Slavyansk ECO Group, which runs the facility.
US President Joe Biden on Wednesday signed into law an aid package providing crucial military assistance to Ukraine, capping months of negotiations and debate.
Belarusian KGB head Ivan Tertel claimed during a speech on Thursday that Ukrainian fighters were “hiding behind the backs of children,” and provided the addresses of the two hospitals located in northeast Kyiv.
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) also denounced the claim that soldiers were based at the hospitals, calling it “a manifestation of information and psychological special operations that play into the hands of Russia.”
