Quote: "The SSU continues to systematically destroy the infrastructure used by Russia to wage war in Ukraine. 

By attacking oil refineries that work for the Russian military-industrial complex, we not only cut off the logistics of fuel supplies for enemy equipment but also reduce the filling of the Russian budget. The explosions at Russian refineries will continue."

More details: The source recalls that recently, SSU drones also attacked a sea terminal in Ust-Luga, Russia, and an oil refinery in Tuapse. 

According to Reuters, these attacks reduced Russian exports of oil products by almost a third. 

Background: A fire broke out in the Russian city of Volgograd on the night of 2-3 February, with petroleum products burning over an area of 300 square metres.
