Ukraine hits major oil terminal in Russia's St Petersburg

Ukraine has struck a major oil terminal in Russia's second city of St Petersburg and other targets in the country's north-west.

In a post on social media, President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote: "Ukraine's defence forces struck port oil infrastructure that generates revenue for Russia's war." He also said an "important military target" was hit overnight in Kronstadt, a nearby naval base.

St Petersburg Governor Aleksandr Beglov said the city was under a "massive" drone attack, admitting the oil terminal was hit. He reported no casualties.

Ukraine has in recent months intensified its long-range drone attacks on Russia's critical energy infrastructure, causing fuel shortages in a number of regions.
