Zelensky told about the consequences of attacks on the Pipeline “Friendship” and Russian refinery

Attack of Ukrainian drones on the refinery and the Druzhba Pipeline are already noticeable for Russia, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said during communication with journalists on September 20.

“We have drones, we know how to produce them. It all depends on the number of drones that we use per day.

But it is not enough for the indicators that I put to our manufacturers and the Ministry of Defense, ”he said.

The head of state says that nowadays Ukrainian production of long -range drones has reached the level when it all depends solely on funding.

“As soon as the number of drones is comparable to the” Russian ” – they will feel it by the fuel deficit, by quantity. We see it with you more and more. It comes a little more. Today, this issue is only financial, ”the President explained.
