“Last night, the SBU and the Armed Forces of Ukraine continued to impose “drone sanctions” against two important Russian enterprises working for the enemy military-industrial complex – the Ilyichevsk Oil Refinery and the Kropotkinskaya oil pumping station. At least 20 explosions were heard in the area of the Ilya refinery. A fire broke out at the plant, which was confirmed even by local authorities. This plant includes six oil refining units with a total capacity of 6.6 million tons per year. In February last year, SBU drones already hit this plant. A primary oil refining unit worth $50 million was damaged,” the source said.
Also, the source of UNN said that the second successful target of Ukrainian drones was the Kropotkinskaya oil pumping station. This is the largest oil pumping station of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium in Russia. As a result of the attack, the station was shut down and decommissioned. Oil is now being pumped bypassing this station.
“Oil refineries and oil pumping stations in Russia are legitimate targets. Not only do they work for Russia’s defense and provide fuel for enemy troops, but they are also important for the Russian economy, which finances the war through oil profits. Therefore, drone visits to these facilities will continue,” the source said.
