Ukraine Vows to Keep Striking Russian Refineries Despite Trump Deal – FT
Kyiv says the attacks will continue as Russian refineries operate at about 60% capacity, limiting Moscow’s ability to meet new diesel commitments, analysts said.
- On Saturday, Oct. 10, Ukrainian drones struck the "Oil products transshipment terminal in Rostov-on-Don," igniting a large blaze in the Zheleznodorozhny district.
- Coordinated long-range strikes occurred Friday, including a deep-interdiction mission against the Omsk Oil Refinery in Siberia, as Special Operations Forces drones navigated flight routes approaching 3,000 kilometers.
- Rostov Regional Governor Yuriy Slyusar reported that Russian air defense forces intercepted at least 50 drones across the Rostov region; the terminal handles approximately 2.5 million metric tons of fuel annually.
- The facility functions as a key logistics node for petroleum products, and Ukrainian officials emphasize that degrading such refining capacity directly constrains Russian mechanized unit mobility and diminishes earnings that fund the Kremlin.
- Drones also struck the Redkino Experimental Plant in the Tver region, which manufactures Decylin-M for Russian Kh-55 and Kh-101 missiles, as interdiction units have progressively expanded their strike radius.
