Ukrainian forces struck a number of key Russian military and infrastructure targets on May 28 and overnight into May 29, both inside Russia and in the Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Luhansk, Dnipropetrovsk, and Sumy regions.
The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces announced this on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.
Among the targets hit was the Volgograd oil refinery, where a fire was recorded.
"Primary oil refining units AVT-1, AVT-3, AVT-5, and AVT-6, as well as secondary oil refining units, were struck. The refinery has halted production," the General Staff said.
The Volgograd refinery is part of the Lukoil company structure and is one of the largest oil refining facilities in southern Russia. It is capable of processing around 14 million tonnes of oil annually. The plant produces gasoline, diesel fuel, aviation fuel, and other petroleum products, including supplies used for the logistics and operational needs of the Russian armed forces.
