Ukraine said it was behind a drone strike that sparked a huge inferno at an oil depot in the town of Klintsy in western Russia on Friday, the latest in a series of escalating cross-border attacks. The strike is the second on a Russian oil depot in as many days, part of what Kyiv has called 'fair' retaliation for Moscow’s strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Video footage showed a huge fireball tearing through the oil depot’s storage tanks, while a cloud of black smoke billowed over the town of some 60,000 inhabitants
