Ukraine says strikes hit over half of Russia's oil refining capacity
Original: Ukraine claims its attacks have taken out more than half of Russia's oil refining capacity
Ukraine claims its long-range drone and missile strikes have knocked out more than half of Russia's oil refining capacity. The assertion, carried by major outlets including ABC News, underscores Kyiv's escalating campaign against Russian energy infrastructure, which has targeted refineries deep inside Russia in recent months. Moscow has not confirmed the scale of the damage, and independent verification remains difficult amid the ongoing war.
Why now: Kyiv's claim of a major blow to Russia's oil refining capacity signals a significant escalation in the war's economic dimension.
