This is the best summary I could come up with:
Officials say that several oil storage tanks near Azov in Russia’s southern Rostov region bordering Ukraine have been set ablaze in an overnight drone attack but said there were no casualties reported so far.
In comments made in an op-ed published ahead of the trip in North Korean state media, Putin thanked the communist dictatorship for “supporting the special military operations of Russia being conducted in Ukraine,” using the term employed by the Kremlin to describe its unprovoked assault.
“We advise (NATO) to stop shifting blame and sowing discord, not add fuel to the fire and instigate confrontation, but rather do something practical for the political settlement of the crisis,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian said at a regular press briefing.
A drone attack early has caused several oil storage tanks to catch fire near the town of Azov in Russia’s southern Rostov region, which borders Ukraine.
“We highly appreciate that the DPRK (North Korea) is firmly supporting the special military operations of Russia being conducted in Ukraine,” Putin wrote in an article published by Pyongyang’s state media, using the Kremlin’s favored term to refer to the unprovoked assault by Moscow.
Both countries are the targets of heavy Western sanctions — Russia for its invasion and its 2014 annexation of Crimea, North Korea for its nuclear weapons program.
