Ukraine Drones Strike Pipeline 1,500 Km Deep Into Russia
The SBU said the overnight raids hit key nodes in the Transneft-Ural and Blue Stream systems, causing fires and damage to fuel infrastructure.
- On July 8, 2026, the Ukrainian Security Service struck the Cherkasy linear production dispatch station in Russia's Republic of Bashkortostan, a key node in the Transneft-Ural pipeline network roughly 1,500 kilometers from the Ukrainian border.
- Gazprom reported an attack on the Krasnodarskaya compressor station, a key link for gas supplies to Turkey via the Blue Stream pipeline, describing it as an attempt at "disrupting the uninterrupted supply of Russian gas to Turkey."
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ordered systematic efforts to degrade Russia's military-economic potential; the SBU argued that disabling such infrastructure disrupts transport systems supplying the Russian military-industrial complex.
- Recent raids, including a July 6 strike on the Omsk refinery in Siberia, have caused fuel rationing across Russia, with overnight attacks also hitting the Rosneft-owned Saratov refinery and industrial zones in Tatarstan.
- SBU head Yevhenii Khmara asserted there are no longer "safe regions for the occupier" and that every long-range strike forces the invader to pay an "ever higher price" for the war.
