If some troops appear there, especially now, during military operations, we proceed from the fact that these will be legitimate targets for destruction, Putin told an economic forum in Russia's far eastern city of Vladivostok.

"Ukraine attacked Russia's Ryazan oil refinery, said the commander of Kyiv's drone forces, Robert Brovdi, as well as an oil depot in the Russian-occupied Luhansk region. Debris fell on the grounds of an industrial enterprise after the Ukrainian attack, said Ryazan's regional governor, Pavel Malkov, with air defence and electronic warfare systems shooting down eight drones in the region, causing no casualties."
