President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukrainian troops are carrying out the “long-range sanctions” plan and confirmed strikes on oil industry facilities in several regions of the Russian Federation.
According to Ukrinform, the president announced this on Facebook.
“SSU warriors struck two oil depots – one in Stavropol and the other in Tver. Both are about 500 kilometers from the front line. Units of Ukraine's Defense Forces also struck a reserve fuel storage facility located about 800 kilometers from the front. An oil pumping station in Russia's Ufa, nearly 1,500 kilometers from our border, also came under sanctions. An oil loading terminal in the Rostov region, about 200 kilometers from the front line, was sanctioned as well,” Zelensky stated.
He said that Ukrainian forces are carrying out a plan of “long-range sanctions” in response to the protracted war and Russian attacks.
“We offered Russia a way to end this war long ago, and every day it chooses to prolong it should bring the reality of war back to where it began – to Russia,” the president emphasized.
