Ukraine will hit Russian refineries in response to Moscow's'new doctrine' of airstrikes Plumes of smoke rise from fires at an oil refinery following what the authorities say was a Ukrainian drone strike in Moscow on Sept. 20. Kyiv - Ukraine will double down on attacking Russian oil refineries in response to a new policy of airstrikes by Moscow designed to force people to abandon Kyiv and other cities, but will not target civilians, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said. Ukraine's intelligence services have obtained documents showing that Russian leader Vladimir Putin had issued a "new doctrine" of military attacks on a much broader range of civilian targets ahead of this winter, Zelenskyy said. "We saw documents and we know that they allow them to attack infrastructure, logistics, and especially to attack in the cities, in the villages, everywhere, roads, schools, hospitals," Zelenskyy said in an interview. "To pressure people to leave the capital, leave different cities: this is the goal of the operation."
