Ukraine-Russia war – live: Kyiv preparing for ‘new wave’ of attacks on Avdiivka as Moscow hits key oil refinery
Ukraine is preparing for a “new wave” of Russian attacks on the besieged eastern town of Avdiivka, according to the region’s military chief. “Our boys are preparing for a new wave,” head of the region’s military administration Vitaliy Barabash said. On Monday, Kyiv claimed Russia was preparing to conduct “meat assaults” in the area by throwing troops at the front line without artillery cover. It comes as Russia struck Ukraine’s Kremenchuk oil refinery in Poltava after launching scores of drones and a missile overnight, military officials said. The refinery was set ablaze during a broader attack which targeted military and critical infrastructure, Filip Pronin, head of the region’s military administration, said. “The fire has been extinguished. The situation is under control,” he said on Telegram, adding that there were no reports yet of casualties as officials sought to gather more details of the destruction. The air force said 18 of the 20 Russian-launched kamikaze Shahed drones were destroyed before reaching their targets, as was the missile. Meanwhile, Ukrainian troops have made confirmed advances near Bakhmut, Donetsk, and Robotyne, Zaporizhzhia, according to the Institute for the Study of War.
