Ukraine's Drones Strike Russian Oil Refineries at Ilsky, Afipsky

Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces struck the Ilsky and Afipsky oil refineries in Russia’s Krasnodar region on September 26, with Ukrainian officials reporting fires at both sites. The facilities have a combined design capacity of nearly 13 million tonnes of crude annually and have been targeted repeatedly because they supply fuel and revenue supporting Russia’s war effort. The extent of the latest damage and repair timelines remain unconfirmed after the attacks, while Russian regional officials attributed casualties and fires in the district to falling drone debris.
