Ukraine's refined strikes on Russian refineries: expert explains the shift

unian.ua (Ukrainian) —

Ukraine has changed its tactics in striking Russian oil refineries, with attacks now hitting multiple points at each facility instead of one or two locations, according to military observer Denys Popovych on Radio NV. Popovych said the strikes have become more qualitative and damaging, with several ignition points appearing at each enterprise, making the damage more significant and noticeable for every plant targeted. Recent attacks include the Volgograd refinery on November 13 and the Omsk refinery on November 11, with drones traveling over 3,000 kilometers. Reuters reported Ukraine's strikes may cut Russian refining capacity by up to 200,000 tons daily.
