Authorities report a major blast at an oil refinery in Moscow following an air raid described in coverage as linked to Ukraine. Multiple outlets say the incident occurs amid strikes targeting Russian sites, with the refinery attack described as among the largest in years. According to official figures cited by both sources, at least 17 people are wounded. The reported fallout extends beyond the refinery: fires also break out at a shopping centre and an apartment building, according to authorities. The articles do not provide further details in the excerpts about the refinery’s specific location, the cause of the blast, or the full scale of damage beyond the fires and injuries. Both outlets frame the event within the context of ongoing aerial attacks on Russian territory. The claims focus on the immediate reported impacts—casualties and fires—at the time of publication, rather than on responsibility attribution beyond the broader description of the raid being Ukraine-linked.
