Drones of the Security Service of Ukraine were involved in the morning attack on oil refineries in Syzran, Russia's Samara Region. Ukrainian drones attacked three large Rosneft refineries at once, those in Novokuybyshevsk, Kuybyshevsk and Syzran, sources have told LB.ua.
Our sources confirmed that the night attack on the Russian refineries was effective.
In total, these refineries process about 25 million tonnes of oil per year, which is almost 10% of the total oil refining in Russia.
"The SBU continues to implement the strategy of undermining Russia's economic potential, which allows it to wage war in Ukraine. The "'cotton' [euphemism for explosion] season at Russian refineries is in full swing. Each such strike reduces the flow of petrodollars that feeds Russia's war economy," the source said.
Earlier it was reported that this morning unknown drones attacked two refineries in Russia's Samara Region at once. A fire broke out on the territory of the refineries, and an oil processing unit was on fire.
