Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU), working alongside the country’s Armed Forces, said on Friday it carried out coordinated overnight strikes on an aircraft plant in occupied Crimea, port infrastructure in Russia’s Krasnodar region, and one of the country’s largest oil refineries as part of a campaign to degrade Moscow’s military capabilities. According to the SBU, the operation targeted two aircraft storage hangars and a production workshop at the Yevpatoria Aircraft Plant in the Russian-occupied Crimean city of Yevpatoria.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. The agency also said drones struck infrastructure at the Port of Taman on the Kerch Strait, where a large fire was reported. In Russia’s Volgograd region, the operation reportedly hit the Lukoil-Volgogradneftepererabotka refinery, one of the country’s largest oil-processing facilities. The refinery has an annual processing capacity of about 15 million metric tons of crude oil and produces gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel. Reuters previously reported, citing industry sources, that Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries since the start of the year had reduced gasoline production to around 65% of average summer demand by early July. The SBU said the strikes were carried out in line with orders from President Volodymyr Zelensky aimed at reducing Russia’s ability to wage war against Ukraine. “Every defense industry facility hit, every burning refinery or port is another step toward exhausting Russia’s war machine,” the SBU said. “Operations to reduce the enemy’s military potential will continue.”
