A fire at an oil refinery in Yaroslavl, Russia, caused by a drone attack has been fully extinguished, per Governor Mikhail Evraev. The attack is part of ongoing Ukrainian long-range drone strikes on Russian energy infrastructure. The incident underscores continued vulnerability of Russian refining assets despite mitigation efforts.

Ukrainian drone strikes have forced the Syzran and Saratov oil refineries to halt operations, with three of Russia's six largest diesel-producing refineries now significantly impacted. A separate drone strike caused a fire at the Yaroslavl refinery, which has since been extinguished. This represents a sustained and escalating campaign targeting Russian energy infrastructure.
