Wow, that was a fireball to mention! What structure especially did they hit?

[–] The_v@lemmy.world 6 points 13 hours ago

The drones are small and the refineries are designed to handle sudden failures in the system and fires. Ukraine likely has some experts directing the targeting of the most difficult to replace or explosive parts. So they get the best bang for their efforts

Given the size of the fireball I would guess that they hit something close to the end of the production line for diesel/gasoline.
