Russia launches over 450 drones in nighttime attacks and Ukraine hits oil refineries

Euronews Portugal13 September 2026 at 10:54

Russia launched over 450 drones during nighttime attacks, while Ukraine responded by hitting oil refineries on Russian territory. These attacks are part of an escalation of conflicts between the two countries.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he was willing to travel to the G20 summit in Miami to meet, on the sidelines, with Russian President Vladimir Putin. This statement comes in a context of diplomatic attempts to end the conflict.

Zelenskyy's interview took place on Saturday, the date on which the intense drone attacks were recorded. The Ukrainian leader expressed his availability for the bilateral meeting during the international event.

Why this matters

This article is relevant for Portuguese-language readers interested in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as it documents a new military escalation with the massive use of drones and, simultaneously, a possible diplomatic opening through Zelenskyy's willingness to meet with Putin on the sidelines of the G20. The combination of large-scale attacks and the prospect of negotiations may signal a change in the course of the war.
