Ukraine intensified drone strikes on Russian oil infrastructure overnight, targeting depots in Rostov Oblast and Krasnodar Krai, according to local authorities. Russia’s Defense Ministry claimed air defenses intercepted 40 Ukrainian drones over Rostov Oblast, Krasnodar Krai, and occupied Crimea, with falling debris damaging administrative buildings at an oil depot in Kagalnitsky district but causing no casualties or fire. A Ukrainian Telegram channel reported a fire at an oil depot in Novotitarovskaya, Krasnodar Krai, while Russian state media TASS cited a fire at a facility in Dinsky district after drone debris fell .

In parallel, Russia launched strikes across Ukraine, hitting Kyiv-based facilities producing drones and drone components, as well as two telecommunications centers serving the Ukrainian military, according to Russia’s Defense Ministry .

Ukraine’s internet infrastructure also came under sustained attack, with Russian strikes disrupting service for around 100,000 households in Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast over the past two days. The Digital Transformation Ministry confirmed outages following a Sept. 23 drone attack, as providers reported direct damage to data centers and communication nodes. UTELS, Pavutyna, Crazy Network, Etherlink, MiroHost, and CityHost all reported disruptions or destruction of equipment .

Ukraine has not commented on the strikes, and the Kyiv Independent could not independently verify the claims. Rostov Oblast, a key logistical hub for Russian operations, has faced repeated Ukrainian drone attacks since 2022.
