Ukraine launched an overnight drone strike on a Russian oil refinery near St. Petersburg, while police in Ljubljana investigated suspected arson at a local car dealership.

Ukrainian forces targeted Russia's second-largest oil refinery in Kirishi, near St. Petersburg, with an overnight drone attack. According to local authorities, multiple explosions triggered a fire at the facility, which emergency services subsequently extinguished. Falling drone debris reportedly killed one woman during the strike.

In Slovenia, police in Ljubljana launched an arson investigation after a fire broke out early Sunday at a car dealership on Dunajska Road in the Bežigrad district. Eleven vehicles were damaged, with four completely destroyed. No injuries were reported, and authorities estimate property damage at several thousand euros.
