MOSCOW—Drones attacked two oil refineries just 40–50 miles (65–80 km) east of Russia’s biggest oil export terminals on Wednesday, sparking a fire at one and causing no damage to the other, according to Russian officials.

Drone attacks deep inside Russia have intensified in recent weeks with strikes on Moscow and oil pipelines.
