Summary
Ukrainian drone strikes are systematically crippling Russia's fuel supply infrastructure, targeting major oil refineries including the Lukoil-Nizhegorodnefteorgsintez refinery (Russia's fourth-largest) and Gazprom's Omsk Oil Refinery. These repeated attacks force shutdowns, disrupt fuel production, and contribute to mounting economic and logistical crises for Moscow, which faces cascading challenges to its energy sector and domestic fuel supplies.
