Ukrainian drone strikes on southern Russia have killed a nine-year-old boy and set fire to a major oil terminal, officials said.

This follows a massive aerial attack by Russia on its neighbour that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said was one of the heaviest bombardments of the country’s energy sector since Moscow’s full-scale invasion almost three years ago.
