Zelensky said that the refinery in Ukhta was hit by long-range An-196 RS drones

The Ukhta refinery, the Ukrainian president noted, is located 1,900 kilometers from Ukraine’s border.

The target in Ukhta was hit by An-196 RS drones, which fly about 2,500 kilometers, and the day before FP-6s (modified FP-1s) were used against the Omsk refinery. We continue to respond to Russia for its strikes on Ukraine, and we do it accurately,

he said.

Zelensky called the strike on a data center in Kaluga Ukraine’s “mirror response” to Russia.
