"A fire has broken out at technical installations at the Afipsky oil refinery in the Seversky district. Measures are being taken to extinguish the fire," the operational headquarters said.

Analysts from CyberBoroshno confirmed damage to the AT-22/4 unit after analysing video footage.

Meanwhile, the port of Kavkaz in the Temryuk district was also hit. Drones damaged a vessel and caused a fire at the port's berth complex. Local authorities claimed that three people had been injured in the attack on the port.

The Afipsky oil refinery has repeatedly been targeted by Ukrainian drones. The facility is critically important for Russia's military-industrial complex, as it supplies fuel to Russian occupation forces.
