My card was charged for a premium subscription in an app I don't use and which I deleted. It says refunds are unavailable. What should I do in this situation? It's only $15, but the fact itself is unpleasant.

Any subscription managed by Apple is easily cancelled here.

You are still allowed to subscribe to a service with a company directly where Apple is not involved. Actually Apple tried to prevent this and was sued and lost in court where they had to pay substantial fines. Deleting an app does not automatically remove a subscription. Knowing the source of your charge is what determines how you will need to proceed.
The message you see is usually after a refund request has been denied or outside the window to request a refund. You can contact Apple directly here, although if it was previously denied, I haven't seen where they have over ruled the decision.

I canceled my subscription in the "Subscriptions" section of my settings. The app is called "Essential."
I'm in Ukraine and because of the war, I can't contact support representatives. I was able to order a call from them once, but I don't remember how I did it.
