Russian authorities confirmed the strike caused damage to the facility in the Kapotnya district of southeast Moscow, though no casualties were reported.
Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin announced the incident on Russia's state-run Maks platform, saying that "one of the drones damaged a Moscow oil refinery facility" and that there were no injuries. He added that 60 drones targeting Moscow had been intercepted on Tuesday alone — what the TASS state news agency described as one of the largest barrages aimed at the Russian capital this year.
Local authorities closed the area around the refinery to traffic following the strike.
