The Ukrainian army announced on Saturday that it had hit the Russian oil refineries overnight in Krasnodar and Syzran, Kiev thus continuing its campaign to attack oil and fuel processing and storage facilities.

“The important installations of the Russian aggressor were hit,” the Ukrainian General Staff said, adding that the attack is “part of reducing the offensive potential of the enemy and complicating the fuel supply of the military units.

“Defense forces take action to undermine the offensive potential of Russian invaders and force the Russian Federation to cease armed aggression against Ukraine,” added the Ukrainian army.
