attack.Images and video footage circulating on social media show black smoke billowing from the facility in the Krasnodar Krai region.Ukrainian forces have repeatedly targeted the Afipsky refinery in response to Moscow&#8217;s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022.The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has said the site can process around 6.25 million tonnes of oil per year. It also helps supply fuel to Russia&#8217;s military, according to Ukraine&#8217;s Main Intelligence Directorate.After a short pause, Kyiv resumed strikes on Russian refineries last week despite sustained pressure from Washington to stop such attacks. US President Donald Trump has said strikes on Russian refineries are at fault for rising global diesel prices as he has looked to shift blame from the Iran war.Ukraine has ramped up strikes on the Russian energy sector this year, particularly targeting facilities such as oil refineries, terminals and depots, in a bid to hit a critical economic driver for Moscow and increase pressure on Vladimir Putin&#8217;s war machine.Russian strikes on UkraineIt comes as the Ukrainian air force reported that Russian forces had launched 227 drones at Ukraine from Thursday evening into Friday morning.&#8221;According to preliminary data, as of 8 am, air defences have shot down or neutralised 196 enemy UAVs of the Shahed type (70 of which were jet-powered), Gerber drones and other types of drones; around 15 attack drones are still in the air, and combat operations are ongoing,&#8221; it said in an update.Oleksandr Koval, the head of the Rivne Oblast Military Administration, said on Friday that one man had been killed in a morning attack on the region.Three others were also injured in strikes on the Boryspil district in Kyiv Oblast overnight, according to Timur Tkachenko, the head of the Kyiv Oblast Military Administration.&#8221;A fire broke out in a private residential house and an outbuilding. Both structures were completely destroyed,&#8221; he wrote in a post on Telegram, adding that energy infrastructure facilities had also been damaged in the Bila Tserkva and Obukhiv districts.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/11\/06\/blaze-reported-at-russias-afipsky-oil-refinery-as-one-killed-and-three-injured-in-strikes-&#8220;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/98\/20\/52\/1200x675_cmsv2_a475ca2c-ac60-5b9e-8c15-80257fef9cf4-9982052.jpg&#8221;] EU News Poland warns: Don&#8217;t negotiate with Russia over Eastern Europe&#8217;s head USA Judge blocks construction of Trump&#8217;s massive &#8216;triumphal arch&#8217; Canada Grizzly bear hunt underway after mother and daughter killed in Canada Tech News Google, Meta and TikTok sue California to block kids social media law News Europe Europe News One [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2241018","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2241018","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2241018"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2241018\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2241018"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2241018"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2241018"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
