Putin bans online information on Russian oil refinery operations

Original: Putin classified and banned the dissemination on the internet of information about the operation of Russian oil refineries

Russian President Vladimir Putin has classified information about the operation of Russian oil refineries and banned its dissemination on the internet. The move restricts public reporting on how the facilities function, a topic of heightened sensitivity amid attacks on Russian refinery infrastructure during the war in Ukraine. Ukrainian media highlighted the decree, reading it as an attempt to conceal the industry's condition.

Why now: Ukraine's drone strikes on Russian refineries have made the industry's status a sensitive topic, prompting the secrecy decree.
