## Summary

Russia and Ukraine launched overnight drone attacks on each other’s industrial sites and energy infrastructure on Friday, causing fires and power cuts. The strikes highlight how energy facilities remain targets in the war, with damage disrupting electricity supplies across parts of Ukraine.

In Russia’s Krasnodar region, drone debris sparked a fire at an industrial facility in Afipsky; an exiled news outlet identified it as an oil refinery with capacity to process 9.1 million tonnes of crude annually, about 3% of Russia’s total. Russia said it intercepted 142 Ukrainian drones, while Ukraine reported shooting down or jamming 196 Russian drones. Russian attacks caused outages in seven Ukrainian regions, and emergency repairs in the capital region included a partial grid shutdown.
