Ukrainian Defense Forces strike Saratov refinery, oil terminal in occupied Crimea
Ukraine's Defense Forces struck the Saratov Oil Refinery in Russia and several Russian military targets in occupied Crimea and Donetsk Oblast overnight into Tuesday, the Ukrainian Armed Forces General Staff reported.
Near a Saratov Oblast refinery, a series of explosions was heard followed by a massive fire. Hit outcomes are being assessed.
The General Staff said the facility produces over 20 types of petroleum products, including gasoline, fuel oil, diesel fuel, vacuum gas oil and technical sulfur. It also supports the Russian army's needs.
Additionally, the Joint-Stock Company Marine Oil Terminal in temporarily occupied Feodosia was hit. This facility is a key node for supplying fuels and lubricants by sea to the Crimean Peninsula and temporarily occupied southern Ukraine territories. Tank hits were recorded there.
Troops also struck a depot in Donetsk and a personnel cluster near Ocheretyne. Strike drones reached the target areas, but results are still being clarified.
