UKRAINIAN drones struck an oil refinery and a fuel depot in Russian border regions, officials in the targeted areas said on Thursday, in Kyiv's ongoing effort to disrupt the Kremlin's war machine and as Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sought further Western support in Europe's biggest conflict since World War II.

An overnight drone attack hit the Novoshakhtinsk refinery in Russia's Rostov region and started a fire, Rostov Gov Vasily Golubev said.
Firefighters had to pull out briefly because of a second attack, he said.
The extent of the damage to the facility wasn't immediately clear. Golubev said that there were no casualties.
In Belgorod, another border region, a drone hit an oil depot overnight, Gov Vyacheslav Gladkov said. It caused an explosion and a fire in one of the oil reservoirs.
