Two oil refineries in Russia attacked by Ukraine.

Dhá scaglann ola sa Rúis ionsaithe ag an Úcráin.

Two oil refineries in Russia were reportedly damaged in drone attacks carried out by Ukrainian military forces overnight.

Tuairiscítear go ndearnadh damáiste do dhá scaglann ola sa Rúis in ionsaithe drón a rinne fórsaí míleata na hÚcráine orthu i gcaitheamh na hoíche.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that two refineries in Bashkortostan in southern Russia and in Yaroslavl northeast of Moscow were attacked.

Thug Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelensky le fios gur ionsaíodh an dá scaglann i mBaiscíria i ndeisceart na Rúise agus in Yaroslavl soir ó thuaidh ó Mhoscó.

According to authorities in Yaroslavl, nearly 100 drones were intercepted before they reached the refinery, but debris from the drones caused damage to the site.

Dar leis na húdaráis in Yaroslavl gur idircheapadh beagnach 100 drón sular bhain siad an scaglann amach ach go ndearna smionagar ó na dróin damáiste don áit.

Zelensky said that the Russians are financing the war in Ukraine with proceeds from the oil sector and that the damage caused by the attacks on the two refineries was a thorn in their side.

Dúirt Zelensky go maoiníonn na Rúisigh an cogadh san Úcráin le fáltas ón earnáil ola agus gur dris chosáin acu an díobháil a rinne na hionsaithe don dá scaglann.

Zelensky also claimed that Ukraine shot down drones with military boats and other vessels belonging to Russia in the Black Sea.

Mhaígh Zelensky freisin gur scaoil an Úcráin dróin le báid mhíleata agus le soithigh eile leis an Rúis sa Mhuir Dhubh.

It is understood that the other vessels were tankers carrying oil for illegal sale on the international market.

Tuigtear gur tancaeir a bhí sna soithigh eile a bhí ag iompar ola lena dhíol go neamhdhleathach ar an margadh idirnáisiúnta.
