Ukrainian Forces Strike Strategic Russian Gas Plant and Satellite Hubs
On June 24, 2026, Ukrainian long-range drones successfully targeted a major natural gas processing facility and two vital satellite communications centers deep inside Russian territory. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the preemptive strikes were intended to disrupt Moscow's military logistics and energy infrastructure. The attacks caused widespread power outages in Sevastopol and reportedly disabled the Moscow oil refinery for at least six months, significantly impacting Russia's domestic fuel supply during the ongoing full-scale invasion.
