Both Russian oil companies that were hit are central to Putin’s economy and his military fuel supplies.
Video shows the Lukoil and Neftika hubs in western Russia, near Belarus, burning after the Ukrainian ambush.
Huge flames poured from the buildings and plumes of black smoke filled the sky in Smolensk.
Witnesses heard at least eight explosions as the two infernos erupted.
The Russian defence ministry immediately went on the defensive – claiming all of Ukraine’s drones were downed or missed their targets.
It said in a statement: “Kyiv regime’s attempts to carry out a number of terrorist attacks using aircraft-type UAVs against targets on the territory of the Russian Federation were stopped.”
But Ukraine celebrated the win for Zelensky’s forces.
A source said: “At the same time, two electrical substations – in Kaluga and Bryansk – and [oil facilities] in the Smolensk region were damaged.”
Two people were also said to be killed by a drone attack in the border region Belgorod.
Belgorod is the area of Russia most ravaged by Putin’s decision to go to war against Ukraine.
Explosions were also heard near the city of Stary Oskol and a bright flash was visible in the sky.
The defence ministry claimed 26 drones had been downed over the region.
In Bryansk, governor Alexander Bogomaz claimed that a power station caught fire when wreckage from a downed drone fell on it.
Impressive footage showed the power stage ablaze.
Kaluga – another region bordering Ukraine – was also hit by the Ukrainian onslaught.
