Ukrainian drones batter Russian oil facilities, set more oil tankers ablaze
- Ukrainian drones hit more Russian oil facilities and set two oil tankers ablaze in the Sea of Azov on Thursday, a day after US President Trump pledged to grant Kyiv a licence to manufacture the Patriot air defence systems to protect its cities.
- A top Ukrainian official, meanwhile, cautioned that it could take a year or more for the country to produce Patriot interceptor missiles.
- The Kremlin said the licence deal reflected what it called Washington's "ambivalence" but noted it appreciated Trump's efforts to help broker a peace deal to end the war, which Russia launched over four years ago.
