The Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) attacked three oil refineries with drones at once - in Ryazan, Kstovo and Kirishi, as well as an air base and a military airfield in the Voronezh region.

SSU discloses the details of the attack on Russia's territory on Mar. 13

According to the sources, attacks on oil refineries continue a series of special operations against enemy refineries, which the SSU had previously launched.

We are systematically implementing a detailed strategy to reduce the economic potential of the Russian Federation. Our task is to deprive the enemy of resources and reduce the flow of oil money and fuel, which the Russian Federation sends directly to the war, to the murders of our citizens, the source emphasised.

Insider notes that the refineries attacked today are among the top 5 largest factories in the Russian Federation.

Also, SSU, together with other AFU representatives, attacked with drones the air base of the Russian Air Force in Buturlinivka and the military airfield in Voronezh.
