Quote: "There is also something to thank our warriors for, in particular, the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Our long-range sanctions have reached Tyumen Oblast in Russia. This is also oil refining, more than 2,000 kilometres from our state border. Effective.

New upgraded FP drones were used. They can now reach targets at distances of 3,000 kilometres. I am grateful to the engineers of Fire Point.

These are completely fair responses to Russian strikes against our state. The Ukrainian long-range sanctions plan is being implemented."

Details: The governor of Russia's Tyumen Oblast, Aleksandr Moor, said on the afternoon of 20 June that an alleged UAV attack on the Tyumen oil refinery had been repelled.

"At the site where debris fell, emergency services are working. According to early reports, the plant was not damaged, and employees were evacuated," he wrote.
