00:01Ukraine kept up its heavy drone assault on Russia setting fire to a major oil refinery in the south
00:07as President Vladimir Putin acknowledged for the first time on Sunday that the country was facing
00:12a certain deficit of fuel and vowed to strengthen protection of oil facilities and boost fuel output.
00:37Speaking to a Russian state TV reporter, Putin described the Ukrainian attacks on oil refineries
00:44as an attempt to cause a split in Russian society and force Russia to halt. He also said that Ukraine
00:51has proposed a halt on deep strikes, arguing that Kiev made the offer because Russian strikes deep
00:58into Ukrainian territory are more powerful and devastating. The Russian leader added that
01:04Kiev also offered to limit the fighting to the four regions that Russia annexed but never fully
01:09captured, Donetsk, Luwansk, Kherson and Zaporizhia. He rejected the proposal, arguing it would allow
01:17Ukraine to relocate its forces.
