Local authorities said that Ukraine's drone attacks overnight on Russia resulted in the death of one person, and damaged numerous industrial sites, as well as two empty oil tanks. This comes amid Ukraine's ongoing campaign against Russian energy infrastructure.

Roman Busargin said that a drone attack on Ukraine resulted in the death of one person, damage to civilian industrial sites, and injuries to several others.

Local media reported that the Governor's Press Service in Tatarstan said that Ukrainian drones caused damage to targets in Nizhnekamsk and inflicted casualties.

The reports didn't specify the targets, but Nizhnekamsk has a major refinery and is near drone factories in Alabuga, a nearby town.

As Ukraine has intensified its drone attacks against Russia's oil refineries, the country is experiencing acute fuel shortages in certain regions. Kyiv has also been hitting targets further away from its territory.

Yury Slyusar, the Governor of Southern Rostov Region, announced on Telegram two tankers had been damaged in Taganrog Bay of Sea of Azov. He said that the ships, which were on their way to Rostov, were empty, and two people were injured.

The Ukrainian military confirmed the strikes but stated that they had struck 'nine such tanks? in the Sea of Azov.

The Sea of Azov provides a vital supply route to Russian forces in Crimea and the other parts of Ukraine controlled by Russia.

The Russian?defence minister said that it had shot down 415 Ukrainian drones over the last 12 hours.

Russia has repeatedly targeted?Ukraine?s energy infrastructure throughout the?war. The conflict is now in its fifth year, and this has caused widespread power outages as well as winter heating shortages.
