On Thursday, May 7, drones again attacked the Lukoil-Permnefteorgsintez oil refinery in Perm, which is one of the largest enterprises in the industry in russia. This is reported by The Moscow Times.

The governor of the Perm Oblast, Dmitry Makhonin, confirmed the fact of the attack on "one of the industrial enterprises", stating that one drone reached the target, while the others were shot down on approach. According to him, emergency services are working at the scene, and the "drone danger" regime continues to operate in the region.
