President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree allowing the Russian government to temporarily take control of critical infrastructure if private owners fail to adequately protect or repair facilities damaged by Ukrainian drone strikes. The measure comes as Ukraine intensifies attacks on Russian oil refineries and other infrastructure. Moscow says the decree does not amount to nationalization, but could be used to pressure companies to strengthen defenses and quickly repair repeatedly targeted facilities.
