A massive fire ripped through the Lukoil-Volgogradneftepererabotka refinery on August 14, halting a facility that processes over 15 million tons of oil per year—5.6% of Russia’s refining capacity. Ukraine’s military confirmed its drones carried out the strike, part of a sustained campaign to cripple Russian fuel production.
This attack follows a string of August UAV operations hitting key refineries in Sochi, Saratov, and infrastructure in Bryansk, knocking out an estimated 10% of Russia’s refining capacity. With production drops reported in Saratov, Ryazan, Samara, and Volgograd, and fuel prices nearing $2.93 per gallon, Ukraine’s drone strategy is reshaping the war’s energy front.

Rusia tiene hombres que asecinan sin ningúna consideración ah….. porque tienen 120 millones de población , de eso Rusia puede mandar a la muerte para defender la el 10% o 12 millones de hombres , pues ucrania con su estrategia está construyendo 5 millones de drones para acabar con ese ejército y no manda a la primera línea ni un solo hombre , los rbot llámese fpv carros de combates interferencia electrónicas como lo estamos viendo y no es cuento , des ruyendo en cada oleada millones de dólares u otra moneda como el rublo mandándole a la destrucción y esto es : aviones de combates acorazados embarcaciones misileras mandandolo al fondo del mar negro azoft o río lago , Rusia : ucrania , tú papá .
No golpes un tanquesito de combustible , destruyelos todos , veo que haces impacto en un tanque en donde hay 30 o 40 , pues destruyelo todos , tomate todo el tiempo pero destruyelos .
Que sigan atacando todas las plantas procesadores de crudo de petróleo hasta llevarlas al 50% de su procesamiento , no paren porque es ka forma más correcta de reducir ingreso por venta de este material . Y no solo eso , también oleoductos terminales de exportaciones y planta transferencia r adora de gas . Y n antena se así gasta que el ceda o los derrotas .
Your opinion is biased and incorrect
Wow! Exceptional strategic operations—ROCK ON UKRAINE💥🌋
SLAVA UKRAINI 🇺🇸🇺🇦
AMERICANS STAND WITH UKRAINE!
SLAVA UKRAINI 🇺🇸🇺🇦
Purtroppo abbiamo un presidente americano che non vale niente e non capisce niente e non sa niente forse la moglie era molto piu capace de tontolone
Van af zijn eerste ontmoeting met Zelansky was het duidelijk welke kant Trompet koos, die van doder Putin; Trompet is een schande voor zijn land.
Do not let Trump force you to accept the fact that you do not be forsed to accept a decision that you do not agree with. Glory to Ukraine From Johann Smith RSA
Gee!!! Russia is lucky this massive fire was only caused by debris. Imagine what would have happened if the drone itself had hit the refinery.
Ukraine should name it’s drones “Sky Debris” 😂
Hit all the public industry, at ports,major cities, at night when most are closed. Efect the public works also will turn public against Pution 😅
Please stop the annoying percussion sounds.
Go Ukraine, God be with you. Usa Wake-up. Trump stop supporting putin he is a murderer and dictator or has putin got you by the short hairs.
Well, the "debris" excuse might be accurate. You see, you can shoot down the drone, but you may not destroy the warhead. So if you shoot it down, and the intact warhead lands on its target…well, you get the picture.
We lost several troops in Desert Storm when the warhead of an "intercepted" SCUD landed on a barracks.
The local police are targeting me. Trying to prevent me from getting work. …they better keep THIER families safe targeting ME.
Less fuel that Russia has is lest planes that fly
Russia fairy tales
Military Show: Russia is losing!
Meantime real world:
Ukraine can save a ton of money just launching debris into russia instead of more expensive whole drones
Slava Ukraini! Glory to Ukraine!
Does it even matter if it was the drone it self that caused the fire or if it was the debris from drone that caused the fire?! The goal off the drone have been accomplished, make it burn! "We shoot it down, yes it still caught fire" seem like kinda stupid thing to say! :D
Ukraine have done so Russia has lost 4.11% of their 2025 GDP so far,and it is still 3½month left of the year😁😁
Should kremlin and putins home and putin
Putin is a war criminal.
There is an international arrest warrant for him.
Trump did not arrest Putin.
Trump is a war criminal.
Putin is going to get a taste of Trump tomorrow.
I dislike multiple time draft dodger, but I love the FAFO attitude.
Trump at least got the EU/NATO/OTAN to finally pony up.
Even my broken clocks are accurate twice a day.
It was Not a Ukrainian drone that hit and damaged one of Russia’s largest oil refineries. It was, instead, after Covid, a nearby strategic toilet paper reserve that became infused with methane swamp gas and on a cloudless night was struck by a bolt of lightning that caused the massive fire and days of black smoke!
Ukraine on the of victory in the next 100 years…
Russian oil-refinery workers are well known heavy smokers.. its hilariously hilarious 😮😅
