The city hosts the Saratov Oil Refinery, formerly known as the Cracking Plant, which is part of #Rosneft, the state-run oil company. The refinery is located in the city's #Zavodsky District.
The HUR source said drones hit one of the plant's oil #refineries and fuel oil tanks, and cited local media reports of multiple explosions.

A series of attacks in recent months have targeted oil refineries deep inside Russia. Multiple refineries reportedly lost capacity after the attacks and Russia is planning to reduce diesel exports from its Black and Baltic Sea ports in April to the lowest level in five months.
"Most of the drones that attacked Russian oil refineries have a range of 700 to 1,000 kilometers, but now there are models that can fly over 1000 km," Fedorov said.
