Black smoke was seen over the Russian city of Yaroslavl on Thursday morning following Ukrainian drone attacks. Regional Governor Mikhail Yevrayev stated that the area had been subjected to a massive attack overnight, claiming that 92 Ukrainian drones were destroyed.
Yaroslavl is home to one of Russia’s largest oil refineries.
