💢🇺🇦 Ukrainian drones strike two Russian oil refineries as Trump tells Kyiv to stop “causing shortage of diesel fuel” Ukrainian drones struck two Russian oil refineries with a combined processing capacity of roughly 400,000 barrels per day overnight into Sunday: the Slavyansk refinery in Krasnodar Krai, near occupied Crimea, and the TANECO refinery in Nizhnekamsk, Tatarstan, roughly 1,200 kilometers from Ukrainian-held territory, according to Ukraine’s General Staff and geolocated footage. 🔸 The Slavyansk refinery, one of southern Russia's largest independent plants, processes about 5.2 million tons of crude a year and supplies fuel to the Russian military, according to Ukrainian reports. Fires were reported at both sites. 🔸 Russian officials said the Nizhnekamsk strike killed two civilians and wounded 14, after a drone hit near a parked car. 🔸 The strikes came the same weekend President Trump publicly urged Kyiv to halt its refinery campaign. "He has to stop knocking out diesel fuel in Russia," Trump said of Zelensky, "because he's causing a shortage of diesel fuel.” 🔸Russia, meanwhile, launched 453 drones at Ukraine overnight, its largest barrage in weeks, striking Odesa for a second straight night, according to Ukraine’s Armed Forces. Kyiv says its strikes on Russian energy infrastructure aim to cut the oil revenue funding the war. 🎥 Ukraine struck Russia’s Slavyansk ECO oil refinery in Slavyansk-on-Kuban, southern Russia, about 80 miles east of occupied Crimea, scoring multiple hits and setting the facility ablaze.
