At least thirteen individuals lost their lives and another seventy-five were injured in a Ukrainian drone strike that targeted the Russian republic of Tatarstan's city of Nizhnekamsk, according to local officials. The attack, one of the deadliest single strikes on Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, hit a Tanevo oil refinery and resulted in the death of a child, as confirmed by authorities. The strike occurred late at night and continued into the early hours, with verified images showing large plumes of smoke and flames rising into the sky. Seven of the deceased were citizens of Uzbekistan, and most of the victims were reportedly staying at a hostel at the time of the attack. Russian officials stated that "civilian individuals who were not involved in any military operations" were present where the drones struck. The Ukrainian government has stepped up long-range strikes on facilities it claims contribute to Russia's war efforts, while Moscow threatened retaliation against those responsible for the attacks. Tatarstan's head Rustam Minnikhanov confirmed the strike and expressed his condolences to the families of the deceased. Ukrainian officials claimed that the targeted facilities are used to carry out attacks against Ukraine, manufacture weapons, and support Russia's war effort. The city of Nizhnekamsk had already been hit once on June 12th. With increasing success in carrying out long-range strikes, Kyiv often targets warehouses or energy infrastructure, resulting in mounting civilian casualties. Meanwhile, Moscow continues to target Ukraine with regular large-scale aerial attacks on cities and residential centers.
