Tensions between Moscow and Kiev are rising amid US threats and the deployment of two US submarines near Russia.
Ukraine attacked several oil refineries and carried out attacks in various areas, while the Kremlin has threatened with 'Oreshniks.' Ukraine has also struck the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, causing damage and one casualty.
Moscow reported 3 deaths during the Kiev attack and 112 drones captured over the past 48 hours.
According to Corriere, Ukrainian attacks hit the Rostov and Penza areas, as well as Samara, far from the front line. Russian air defenses intercepted and destroyed 112 Ukrainian drones over Russian regions, the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov last night.
A fire also broke out in the industrial zone near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, following attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The Russian news agency TASS reported that the Ukrainian military used a drone to hit a fire truck that had arrived to put out the flames.
"Following shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the Russian-occupied Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, a fire broke out in the industrial zone. During an inspection of the area, a car unrelated to the nuclear power plant was also found, in which a dead civilian was found," TASS reported.
The administration of the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant stated that the attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which resulted in the death of a civilian and were directed against nuclear and radiation safety personnel, are absolutely unacceptable. There were no casualties among the plant staff or firefighters.
Kremlin: Despite US threats, India will continue to buy oil from Russia!
On the other hand, the Kremlin continues diplomatic and economic talks, as it announced that India will continue to buy oil from Russia, despite US President Donald Trump's threats of sanctions.
"These are long-term oil contracts. It's not that easy to stop buying from one day to the next," one of the sources said.
Last month, Trump wrote in a post on Social Truth that India would face further sanctions over its purchases of Russian arms and oil. Yesterday, the US president told reporters that he had heard that India would no longer buy oil from Russia. Reuters reported this week that Indian state-owned refiners stopped buying Russian oil last week after discounts narrowed in July.
"Regarding our energy supply needs, we consider what is available in the markets, what is being offered and also what is the prevailing global situation or circumstances ," Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal told reporters yesterday.
