Ukrainian Drones Hit Oil Refinery, Chemical Plant 1500km Deep Into Russia
Despite fresh warnings from President Vladimir Putin issued the day prior at the Valdai summit in Sochi, Ukrainian drones have once again targeted two major industrial facilities deep inside Russia overnight - an oil refinery in the Orenburg region and a chemical plant in the Perm region - regional officials announced Friday.
The Orsknefteorgsintez oil refinery was struck and suffered damage in the first attack, which lies near the border with Kazakhstan. Videos circulating on social media showed a drone crashing within the refinery grounds, followed by thick black smoke rising above the site. Watch:
A Ukrainian drone passes low through ineffective small arms fire from the ground to dive onto Orsknefteorgsintez refinery in fascist Russia's Orenburg Oblast, 1,400km from Ukraine. The refinery produces gasoline, diesel, aviation fuel, fuel oil, and bitumen - 6.6M tons per year. pic.twitter.com/O2II7FF6Iq

Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook signaled her intention to remain at the central bank, despite calls for her resignation by President Donald Trump over allegations of mortgage fraud.
Cook said she will gather accurate information to answer any legitimate questions and provide the facts, and that she has no intention of being bullied to step down from her position.
Senator Elizabeth Warren said the Trump administration "should not weaponize the federal government to illegally fire independent Fed Board members", according to her emailed statement.
Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance said negotiations over ending Russia's war in Ukraine are focused on security guarantees for Ukraine and territory Russia wants to control.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says in a post on X that Ukraine is ready for a “strong, effective investment and security agreement with the President of the United States."

With Europe sidelined from US talks with Russia this week, French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer will visit the White House next week.
