Ukraine Says It Struck Ilsky Oil Refinery in Southern Russia
The strike caused a fire at the refinery, while Kyiv said Russian drone attacks killed 7 people and injured 59, officials said.
- On Saturday, Ukrainian forces struck Russia's Ilsky oil refinery in Krasnodar, causing a fire, the General Staff confirmed. The operation was conducted by the 1st Separate Center and the 414th brigade, known as "Madyar's Birds."
- The strike escalates reciprocal attacks between Russia and Ukraine, following a Russian drone assault on Kyiv on Friday that killed seven people and injured 59, intensifying the conflict's focus on energy infrastructure.
- Industry sources reported that Lukoil's Perm refinery halted crude processing after a Friday drone strike, while the General Staff said a fire broke out at the Novoshakhtinsk plant in Rostov region.
- These shutdowns have forced Russian regions to reimpose fuel rationing, as plants halted or cut this month account for about 121.6 mn tonnes a year, or roughly 37% of Russia's 327 mn tonnes nameplate capacity.
- President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated Russia is "constantly expanding their escalation campaign" against essential infrastructure, while Ukraine accelerates production of interceptors to counter jet-powered Shahed drones.
