The Anninsky ethanol distillery, located in Russia’s Voronezh region, was hit by drones just moments after a previous attack.

These plants were used to produce fuel for the explosives used by the Russian military in its war against Ukraine.

Shocking footage showed how the flammable site exploded after the targeted air strike.

The power from the strike forced debris to shoot into the air.

The Governor for the Voronezh region revealed two employees at the Anninsky site were injured.

This fire also damaged several buildings and machinery around the alcohol plant.

A second plant, in the Novokhopersky district of the same region, was damaged by the drone strike but it did not result in a blazing inferno.

The local governor said a roof and tank were damaged in the second attack.

He added the fire was extinguished around 2 am local time.

A Ukrainian official explained why these factories were important targets in the war.

The head of the Centre for Combating Disinformation at the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine, Andrei Kovalenko, revealed these alcohol plants have a much sinister purpose.

Kovalenko said: “Russian distilleries are used to produce not only alcohol, but also military fuel and explosives.”

He added: “These are all military objects, despite being disguised as something else.”

This strike came after Putin issued a chilling threat to Ukraine on its use of weapons.

Russia’s leader vowed to hit back if Volodymyr Zelensky’s army used long-range missiles on his country.

Putin confirmed yesterday that if the West were to lift their arms restrictions on Ukraine and allow it to fire the long-range rockets it would mark an act of war by NATO and he would have to hit back.

The dictator said: “Our military department is thinking about this and will offer various options.”

Putin said this sort of action by Ukraine would lead him to believe there was Western involvement in an attack.

The tyrant said: “Only NATO specialists can do this, because this requires space reconnaissance, which Ukraine naturally does not have.

“We understand this –  specialists are needed who will enter flight missions based on this reconnaissance data and perform a whole series of other actions.

“The Ukrainian army cannot do this on its own. Therefore, what is happening now is all being done by NATO officers.

“The only question is whether they will allow themselves to strike deep into Russian territory or not.

“And, naturally, we will have to react to this accordingly.”

PARIS Fury fans are convinced they have figured out the horrible reason why the mum-of-seven frequently covers her wrist in stunning snaps.

Paris, 34, the wife of boxing legend Tyson Fury, 36, often gives fans a glimpse into her luxurious lifestyle on social media.

It comes after the recent news, whereby Tyson revealed that Paris had a miscarriage hours before his Oleksandr Usyk fight in May[/caption]

But amongst stunning selfies and fabulous family snaps, some fans have noticed that she often conceals or blanks out her left wrist in certain photos.

Not only this, but many are convinced they know the real reason behind it. 

In a recent Instagram post, Paris shared snapshots from her “Simple Sunday” outing.

She posed in a restaurant while dressed in all black and looked stunning as she struck various poses.

The relatable mum accessorised with silver earrings and a striking silver ring, but fans were left puzzled when they noticed Paris had covered her wrist, sparking a discussion in the comments section.

However, eagle-eyed fans appeared to have discovered the reason behind her decision to use a gold cover-up drawing to hide her wrist from public view.

Many thought it was to hide an expensive watch, to ensure that she is not targeted by thieves.

One fan asked, “Gorgeous. Why is your wrist covered?” 

To this, another chimed in and replied: “Seems to be hiding a watch.”

At the same time, a third fan added: “It’s so scummy people don’t know exactly what watch it is so they don’t go and target her to take it.”

Another commenter speculated on Paris’ vigilance and shared: “When people steal it’s normally sold to someone else before it’s stolen. 

“I’m guessing she is preventing this from being stolen to order.”

At the same time, other fans were quick to express their admiration for Paris and her family in the comments.

One woman wrote: “Beautiful lady with a beautiful family x much love.”

Whilst a second complimented: “You look stunning. Simple and classic look.”

Meanwhile, someone else agreed: “So beautiful and classy.”

HEARTBREAKING MISCARRIAGE

The heartwarming messages towards Paris come after the devastating family news which Tyson disclosed recently, revealing the couple had faced a heartbreaking tragedy before his fight with Oleksandr Usyk in May.

In a touching reveal, Tyson explained that six months into her pregnancy, Paris chose not to accompany him ring-side in Riyadh due to high blood pressure complications. 

When she said she couldn’t come over, I knew there was a problem

Yet unbeknownst to the world, the Gypsy King went toe-to-toe in the fight carrying the heavy knowledge that Paris had suffered a miscarriage back home in Morecambe.

He confessed: “When she said she couldn’t come over, I knew there was a problem. She usually comes out on fight week but she said she had high blood pressure.”

Tyson opened up about a personal tragedy and shared:: “I knew she wasn’t coming over on the Friday and [Saudi boxing chief] Turki Alalshikh offered us a private jet to get around the high blood pressure and said he would bring the doctor with her. 

“She said she couldn’t come and I asked her what was up and asked her to tell me but she wouldn’t. So I knew, I knew there was a problem. 

“I said to my brother, ‘She’s lost that baby’. She never told me she had lost the baby, but I knew.”

“I am not making excuses but she was six months pregnant; it’s not like a small miscarriage at the beginning, you have to physically give birth to a dead child, on your own, while your husband is in a foreign country. 

“I could not be there for her in that moment and that is tough for me. To go through that on your own, that isn’t good.”

MARSEILLE boss Roberto De Zerbi slammed the performance of Mason Greenwood after hooking him off at half-time.

They were beaten 3-0 against Paris Saint-Germain last night as they fell six points behind their rivals at the top of the Ligue 1 table.

Manager Roberto De Zerbi was not pleased with his performance[/caption]

Greenwood started the game dubbed “Le Classique” on the right-wing but struggled in the opening 45 minutes.

He failed to get into the game and was often pinned back in his own half as PSG dominated.

The one-time capped England international also did not register a shot and gave possession away four times with his passes.

Greenwood was hauled off at the break, with fellow Englishman Jonathan Rowe replacing him.

Asked about the change after the game, De Zerbi said: “Because I didn’t like the way he played.

“If we want to compete for the title we have to push in all matches.

“He’s a good guy but I expected a lot more from him this evening.”

Since joining Marseille in a £26.6million deal from Manchester United, Greenwood has scored six goals in nine game.

But a drought in front of goal has seen the 23-year-old find the back of the net just once in his last six games.

Off the pitch, Greenwood continues to settle into life in France and his girlfriend Harriet Robson is expecting their second child.

MOST of us are trying to keep our homes warm without turning the heating on.

There’s plenty of tricks to try but people are swearing by one Dunelm buy to keep heat in and keep cold air out.

Not only do they keep the light out but it keeps the heat[/caption]

Shoppers have praised the Montreal Ultra Blackout Eyelet Curtains for keeping rooms toasty in the winter and blocking out light.

And the best part? Certain styles are currently included in their 50% off sale.

The curtains range from £20 to £69.30, depending on the colour and size.

These curtains feature three layers of fabric to ensure no light can come through – and they are also perfect for not letting draughts come through either.

Dunelm bosses say: “Made with three layers of blackout coating for premium performance, these elegant Montreal Ultra Blackout eyelet curtains are ideal for ensuring maximum light block and are plain in design to complement any room.

“Designed with a discreet blackout-lined panel which folds down behind your curtain pole to prevent light coming through the eyelets.

“Secured with Velcro fastenings which attach to your curtain pole, these curtains wrap around your window to prevent light from entering at the sides of the curtain and are perfect for ensuring maximum light block.

“The blackout coating also has thermal properties to improve insulation by blocking out heat in summer and maintaining warmth in winter.”

Of course, you can use them on your windows as they were designed but other savvy shoppers have used them across doors too to keep the heat in.

People have been taking to the store’s website to rave about the Chenille Thermal Eyelet Door Curtain, which can be hung over a front or back door to keep draughts out.

“This thermally insulated curtain immediately stopped the cold spots from my hallway,” one person said of the curtain.

“It’s kept the heat in my flat with no extra expense and it has a lovely, soft finish. Wish I’d have done it much sooner!

“A real central heating saver!!”

Happy customers were quick to share their thoughts in the reviews.

The blackout curtains have over 300 reviews with an average rating of 4 stars out of 5.

One person wrote: “Curtains are a perfect fit, great addition to our living room. Keeps draughts out too!”

Another commented: “Curtains hang nice, lovely colour, keeps heat in and light out.”

“They are very lovely, feel really nice. They do what they say, can’t wait for winter, it will be very cosy and warm in my living room,” penned a third.

Meanwhile a fourth said: “Happy with this purchase. The curtains block all the light out completely. They also keep out any draught from the window.”

“Our bedroom is warm and dark thanks to these curtains,” claimed a fifth.

Someone else added: “Very thick heavy curtains. Bought for sons room last year. Summer a cool room winter a warm room.”

DONALD Trump launched a host of fiery attacks on Kamala Harris last night, in a rally that saw his pals label his rival the “antichrist” and the “devil”.

The former president took to the stage in front of 20,000 supporters in Madison Square Gardens, New York, on Sunday.

The 78-year-old was introduced by his wife Melania, who made a surprise appearance for the marathon five-hour event – for which Trump was two hours late.

The line-up of speakers included Elon Musk, Hulk Hogan, Dr. Phil, and comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who sparked controversy by calling Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage”.

During his speech, Trump called Vice President Kamala Harris “grossly incompetent” and dubbed the former prosecutor a candidate with “a very low IQ.”

“This election is a choice between whether well have four more years of gross incompetence and failure, or whether well begin the greatest years in the history of our country,” he said.

“She’s unfit for office. Everyone knows it,” he said. “No one respects her, no one trusts her, no one takes her seriously.”

His son Donald Trump Jr., meanwhile, followed his brother Eric to the stage, calling his dad the “king of New York,” and insisting he would “reclaim the city that he built.”

Trump himself vowed to take the Big Apple back, projecting he would become the first Republican in 40 years to win the state.

“We want to win our country, but we also want to win New York and make it safe and strong and beautiful and affordable and vibrant again,” the former president said.

“When I left, New York was the place you wanted to be and now people just don’t speak well of it. But we’re going to bring it back.

“And we’re going to bring it back strong.”

Comedian Tony Hinchliffe, meanwhile, said during his set: “I don’t know if you guys know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now,” Hinchcliffe said.

“I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

Hinchcliffe’s set also included lewd and racist comments about Latinos, Jews and Black people, all key constituencies in the election just nine days away.

Harris’ campaign was quick to hit back, with Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny also backing her shortly after.

Trump’s childhood pal David Rem, meanwhile, sent shockwaves with his fiery speech, waving a crucifix and calling the vice president the “antichrist”.

Trumps’ campaign later distanced itself from Hinchcliffe, insisting in a statement: “This joke does not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign.”

The wild series of speeches came just days before Americans will learn their presidential fate.

Polls show a neck-and-neck race, both in the swing states and nationally.

The election is already underway, with 40 million Americans having voted early in person or by mail.

It will be decided across battlegrounds including the “blue wall” states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, as well as the Sun Belt states of North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada.

The crunch result could come down to tens of thousands of votes, potentially setting the stage for tense counts over several days.

AUXERRE caused chaos in their showdown with Lyon after employing a little-known rule which could have seen the match replayed.

The Ligue 1 side requested a “technical reservation” following a controversial penalty decision at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais.

The visitors responded by presenting the ref with a written ‘reservation’ which could have seen the game replayed[/caption]

Lyon were awarded a penalty in the first half of Sunday’s contest after a contentious VAR review.

Georges Mikautadze hit the deck just moments before halftime following a challenge from Gideon Mensah.

But a fuming Auxerre claimed referee Jeremy Stinat had already blown for a goal kick before the foul took place.

Mikautadze stepped up and slammed in the spot-kick, only for chaos to reign on Auxerre’s bench.

Assistant coach Jean Marie Stephanopoli was sent off during the confusion before captain Jubal Junior presented the referee with a written technical reservation.

In French football, this unusual written request can be made immediately after the referee’s decision, before play resumes.

It gives the team the right to submit a direct complaint, in writing, to the French FA Referees’ Commission.

Auxerre presented the written request to Stinat on the field, with the game delayed for almost 15 minutes.

The reservation allows a team to challenge a decision they believe has unfairly altered the outcome of the match.

If successful, it can see the goal in question annulled and the match replayed.

According to Article 559 of the French football rulebook: “A reservation on technical issues is only admissible if it is made to the referee by the complaining captain at the stoppage of play which is the consequence of the contested decision.

“If the reservation concerns a fact on which the referee did not intervene, it must be made at the first stoppage of play.”

It adds: “The technical foul is only retained if the committee judges that it has an impact on the final result of the match.

“To follow its course, this reserve must be sent, within 48 hours, by registered letter to the headquarters of the Professional Football League accompanied by a sum of €76.

“The Professional Football League transmits the file to the Federal Commission of Referees of the FFF.

“The latter orders the result [to stand] or decides that the match is to be replayed.”

Newly promoted Auxerre battled back in the second half to salvage an impressive 2-2 draw.

Despite DAZN cameras spotting Jubal giving the ref the written technical reservation, the team did not follow up on the complaint after the final whistle.

The result will therefore stand and the game will not be replayed.

Auxerre coach Christophe Pélissier told DAZN after the match: “The flag is raised [for a goal kick], he whistles.

“[The referee] tells me he whistled after.

“We won’t keep the reserve. I saw the referee at the end, we talked. We shouldn’t sum up the match with that.”

FORMER Chelsea chief Marina Granovskaia was back at Stamford Bridge – this time amongst the fans.

Granovskaia – who spent over ten years at the club – joined supporters to watch the Blues’ 2-1 win over Newcastle.

But the Russian-Canadian businesswoman might not have been tall enough to catch Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer’s goals.

She wrote on Instagram: “First time in with the supporters at Stamford Bridge and, no, I was not tall enough to see the goals!

“But wonderful to be back to witness such a great performance and important win!”

Granovskaia started working for Chelsea under ex-owner Roman Abramovich in 2010 on transfer and business dealings.

By 2014, she was chief executive of the West London club and had a huge part in negotiating transfers.

But Granovskaia left alongside Abramovich in 2022 when it was brought by American billionaire Todd Boehly.

Her return to Stamford Bridge was a huge hit with fans as her comment section was filled with praise.

One said: “The queen is back.”
