DRAMATIC footage shows the moment people fled as a huge fireball explosion ripped through a major Russian oil refinery.

Ukrainian forces blasted the Rostneft Oil Refinery in Ryazan with long-range kamikaze drones last night in the latest blow for Vladimir Putin.

Towering flames and huge plumes of smoke could be seen rising from the site in footage shared on social media.

People ran from the scene as the inferno raged.

At least 20 drones targeted the Ryazan region, southeast of Moscow, overnight - striking the depot and a power station.

Regional governor Pavel Malkov said emergency services were tackling the aftermath of an air attack.

Ryazan oil refinery is one of the largest in Russia and is critical for fuel supplies to Moscow.

Its capacity is 18 million tons a year, and it is owned by state company Rosneft, headed by close Putin crony Igor Sechin.

Drones have become a critical military factor. We’ve entered the age of robotic warfare.

I hope handing you, Fauci, and Nuland over to Putin are part of the peace deal.

Even President Trump mocked Putin for his “Kyiv in a week” delusions.

Kamikaze drones are a more highly developed kamikaze shell.

I'd bet US aid to rebuild them will be a sweetener as part of the Ukrainian peace deal.

It might be possible to ship the People's Republic of California's refineries, after all California hates them. Win-win...

Oh how the NATO controlled Ukraine hates the idea of peace! They want WWIII and will stop at nothing to get the US involved in that mess. This attack does nothing to help Ukraine militarily, but sure helps NATO/Ukraine try to provoke Putin to refuse to negotiate. Then, if Putin responds with aggression, the ‘screaming victims’ in Ukraine’s government will once again demand US involvement, and more money, money, money. This, after Trump made clear Ukraine stands no chance militarily and has decimated it’s country for nothing.

Just another lame attempt to provoke WWIII.
