What happened
On September 25, 2026, a large-scale drone attack was reported across several Russian regions, including Perm. Governor Dmitry Makhonin confirmed that Russian air defense units were responding to what he described as a “massive” drone attack in the Perm region. Subsequent reports indicated the target was the LUKOIL-Permnefteorgsintez oil refinery, which is one of Russia’s major oil-processing facilities. The attack follows a series of strikes on the facility this year, with operations already suspended after an August attack.
