## Summary

Ukraine’s General Staff said Ukrainian forces struck three Russian military-industrial facilities overnight on 15 November, including two plants in Tatarstan and an aircraft manufacturer in Bryansk Oblast. The strikes form part of a campaign against facilities and infrastructure that support Russia’s war effort.

Explosions and fires were reported at Nizhnekamskneftekhim and the TAIF-NK refinery in Nizhnekamsk, more than 1,000 kilometres from Ukraine; the extent of damage is still being assessed. The refinery’s sole primary oil-processing unit was reportedly hit. Nizhnekamsk’s mayor said the drone attack damaged industrial sites and an apartment building, prompting evacuations, with several people injured. The third target, Monolit in Trubchevsk, makes aircraft including helicopters and their components.
