Ukrainian Long-Range Drone and Missile Strikes Hit Russian Oil Refineries
Ukrainian forces executed a large-scale operation targeting three Russian oil refineries and a sanctioned cargo vessel. The strikes, carried out by elite drone units, aimed to disrupt Russia's energy-dependent war economy and fuel logistics. Significant damage was reported at several facilities in southern and central Russia. This escalation follows Kyiv's strategic shift toward using domestic long-range technology to hit high-value economic targets deep within Russian territory, bypassing traditional frontline constraints.
