There has been a series of strikes on Russian oil refineries, military airfields, radar facilities and defence manufacturing plants on Saturday.
The Ukrainian strikes on Russia comes after the US President ordered two nuclear submarines “closer” to the Russian Federation after the former President Dmitry Medvedev made nuclear threats on America.
President Trump said the move is in response to “highly provocative” comments made by Medvedev.
Trump said in a statement, “We always want to be ready, and so I have sent two nuclear submarines to the region. I just want to make sure that his words are only words and nothing more than that.”
“A threat was made by a former president of Russia, and we’re going to protect our people,” he added.

The oil refinery supplies aviation fuel for Vladimir Putin’s warplanes that are constantly attacking Ukrainian civilians.
Ukrainian Telegram channel Exilenova+ said the successful Ukrainian strikes caused a mushroom cloud as high as 180 metres or 590 feet into the sky.
An oil refinery in Ryazan which supplies Moscow was also hit in an attack and fires were also reported near to a military airfield used for drone strikes on Ukraine on Primorsko-Akhtarsk, in the Krasnodar region.
