Ukraine's latest drone strike on Russia was captured on camera on Thursday, showing explosions and fires at a Moscow oil refinery.

The footage, shared by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, begins with thick black smoke rising over the area as seen from a moving vehicle.

The refinery comes into view with large columns of smoke spreading across the skyline.

A storage tank explodes on camera, with the force of the blast sending the tank's lid flying into the air while plumes of smoke and debris spread outwards.

Other segments show flames burning angrily at multiple points across the refinery complex as dark smoke continue to rise above the facility.

The attack was one of the largest drone assaults on Moscow in recent years, Russian officials said.

Ukraine says the strike on the refinery was a response to Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities.
