A Norway fan has gone viral for not taking part in their Row celebration after matches and won't do it if they win the World Cup "It’s factually wrong; they didn’t row, they sailed over the Atlantic”

🦅💥 Historical footage from Omsk. FP-1 UAV maneuvers before approaching the target at one of the largest refineries in Russia.

This is unprecedented! Omsk is located well to the east of the Urals. All of Russia's major oil refineries have now been hit by Ukrainian drones. Just imagine what Zelenskyy could do if he only had a few cards ...

❗️Ukraine's Defense Forces reportedly struck the Omsk Oil Refinery, with upgraded FP-1 drones said to have hit the ELOU-AVT-11 crude distillation unit more than 2,500 km from the Ukrainian border. Impacts on the unit's process columns were reported. #Ukraine
