Defense forces struck an oil refinery in the Russian Federation
The Defense Forces struck two Russian oil refineries overnight – Krasnodar and Sizran.

This is reported by Telegram of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

"As part of reducing the offensive potential of the enemy and complicating fuel supplies to the occupiers' military units, units of the Unmanned Systems Forces and Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck the 'Krasnodar Oil Refinery' (Krasnodar Krai, Russia)," - the General Staff noted.

It is known that this oil refinery produces light petroleum products with an annual volume of 3 million tons – gasoline, diesel, aviation fuel. It actively participates in supplying the Russian armed forces.

Numerous explosions and a fire have been recorded at the facility.

Additionally, units of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine repeatedly struck the 'Sizran Oil Refinery' in the Samara region of Russia. The enterprise produces gasoline, diesel fuel, aviation kerosene, fuel oil, and bitumen. The processing capacity until August 2025 was 8.5 million tons per year.

"The defense forces are taking measures to undermine the offensive potential of the Russian invaders and to force Russia to cease its armed aggression against Ukraine," - the General Staff added.
