Ukraine's Drone Attacks Hit Russian Data Center and Oil Terminal
A Ukrainian drone attack has hit a Russian data center and oil terminal in St. Petersburg, causing damage and disruption.
The attack was carried out on the backdrop of escalating tensions between Kiev and Washington, following US President Donald Trump’s criticism of Ukraine for its strikes on Russian oil infrastructure.
The Ukrainian drone attack has caused a fire at the oil terminal in St. Petersburg, with Kiev launching over 1000 drones against Russian territory in one of its largest air attacks to date, according to Associated Press.
The data center of VK, a Russian internet company, was also attacked, with the company confirming the information and stating that its platforms continue to operate in normal mode despite the attack.
