A Ukrainian drone crashed into one of Russia's largest oil refining complexes on Saturday, sparking a fire and causing minor damage, a Russian official said.

"Today, Bashneft's facility was subjected to a terrorist attack by aircraft-type drones. A fire broke out, which is currently being extinguished," the head of Russia's Bashkortostan region, Radiy Khabirov, said on Telegram.
