Russia was attacked by Ukrainian drones at night. It was loud in Bryansk, and explosions were also heard in the Krasnodar Territory and Rostov Region of the Russian Federation.

Factories and at least one refinery were hit. Details and footage from the scene were collected by the Telegram channel Exilenova+.

Zelensky spoke about the night’s long-range strikes on Russia
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized: the Ukrainian army responds to the enemy’s terror against Ukrainians every day.

“There are new results of long-range responses from our soldiers. This night, the Ilya Refinery in the Krasnodar region was hit. Our long-range forces also worked in the Rostov region: a plant that supplies the occupiers with components for missiles and artillery, and the Pantsir-S2 complex were hit. Our sanctions were also applied to logistical facilities working on this war. There are results in the Black Sea. I thank the soldiers of the SBU, the SOU, and the Navy for their accuracy! I am grateful to everyone who responds to Russia’s attacks on our people and turns this war back to where it came from,” the head of state emphasized.

Ilya Refinery hit

Exilenova+ began writing about another attack on the Ilya Refinery, 50 km from Krasnodar, after 1 am.

The channel also showed footage filmed by the Russians of the fire after the strike.

Among the weapons used in the attack that night were jets: the sounds of their flight were recorded by witnesses.

Judging by the off-screen commentary, Russians were shocked by the number of drones that visited the Krasnodar Territory that night.

Meanwhile, the governor of the Krasnodar Territory, Veniamin Kondratyev, said that “debris” caused fires on the territory of two enterprises at once.

“The Afipsky refinery in the Krasnodar Territory was probably also attacked,” Exilenova+ suggested.

The General Staff later confirmed the damage – although only to the Ilya Oil Refinery.

“On the night of September 26, 2026, units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine in Ilsky, Krasnodar Territory of the Russian Federation struck the Ilsky Oil Refinery. A fire was recorded on the territory of the enterprise,” the report said.

The General Staff also reminded that Ukraine is carrying out attacks on Russian refineries and similar facilities within the framework of its inalienable right to self-defense guaranteed by Article 51 of the UN Charter. After all, such attacks contribute to the reduction of the aggressor’s military-economic potential.

The Rostov region was attacked

Rostov Oblast was also under attack by the Defense Forces that night. There was a lot of noise in a number of cities in the region, in particular, in the city of Azov.

The attack on Azov was confirmed by local governor Yuriy Slyusar.

Among the allegations about houses and social facilities allegedly attacked by Ukraine, he shyly mentioned damage to “industrial facilities.”

Exilenova+ also noted that local residents wrote about the attack on the Azov Optical-Mechanical Plant, which produces products for the defense industry.

NASA FIRMS also captures the center of the fire near the enterprise.

Explosions in Bryansk

Explosions were heard in Bryansk at night. Something was burning there too .

Russian air defenses were actively operating in Bryansk. But judging by the footage that appeared online, the Russians were hardly very happy about the downing.

Earlier, OBOZ.UA reported that the day before, Ukraine had struck Russian refineries and three important enterprises involved in the production of missiles.

In addition, the Defense Forces attacked the logistics hub of the Russian army in occupied Luhansk .
