Ukrainian drone attack damages petrochemical plant deep inside Russia

# A Ukrainian drone attack damaged the Sterlitamak petrochemical plant deep inside Russia, causing a partial collapse of a water-treatment facility. No-one was injured. Regional authorities say the plant in the Bashkortostan region, about one-thousand-500 kilometres from the Ukrainian border in the Urals Mountains, continued operations without interruption. Two drones used in the attack were shot down. The Russian Defence ministry said in its daily report its defence systems destroyed 83 drones over seven other Russian regions.
