Ukrainian drones strike Russia's largest oil refinery in Omsk

news.de (German) —

Ukrainian drones attacked Omsk, a Siberian city 2,500 kilometers inside Russia, targeting the country's largest oil refinery on November 11, 2026, with over eight hours of air raid alerts reported. The refinery, owned by Gazprom Neft, processes over 21 million tons of crude oil annually and produces roughly one-sixth of Russia's gasoline and diesel. Moscow confirmed the drone attack but did not specify damage, while residents reported fires and power outages. This marks the third attack on the facility since July 2026. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called such strikes "long-range sanctions" aimed at weakening Russia's ability to finance and fuel its military operations.
