Ukrainian drones strike Russian fuel terminal hours after Trump-Putin diesel talk

Original: The night Trump announced a diesel deal with Putin, drones knocked out more than half the tanks at a Russian fuel-export

Ukrainian drone strikes hit a major fuel-export terminal in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, reportedly destroying more than half its storage tanks. The site, which loads oil products onto river and sea tankers, burned for two days and was still smoking on the third. The attack came the same night Donald Trump announced a diesel deal with Vladimir Putin, drawing attention to the contrast between talk of energy cooperation and the ongoing war.

Why now: The strike happened the same night Trump announced an energy deal with Putin, making the timing striking.
