Ukrainian long-range drones strike Omsk refinery in deep-rear operation
Ukrainian strike drones successfully targeted the primary crude distillation unit (CDU10) at the Omsk oil refinery in southwestern Siberia, Russia's largest refining facility. Located approximately 2,700 kilometers from Ukrainian territory, the strike caused a significant blaze and forced an operational shutdown at the facility, which processes 460,000 barrels per day. The operation is part of a systemic interdiction campaign designed to degrade the economic infrastructure and fuel supply chains sustaining the Russian military effort.
