Attack on the Kirishi Plant — Known Results
What is important to understand is that on March 26, 2026, Ukrainian troops struck powerful blows at the Kirishsky oil refinery, located in the city of Kirish, Leningrad Region, Russia.
The General Staff draws attention to the fact that this refinery is among the largest refineries of the aggressor country.
As we were able to learn, damage has been confirmed to the primary oil refining units ELOU-AVT-2 and ELOU-AVT-6, as well as to oil bitumen production facilities, hydrotreating and gas fractionation units.
According to Ukrainian soldiers, the capacities of the specified refinery are actively used to produce a wide range of petroleum products, in particular fuel to meet the needs of the armed forces of the aggressor state.
The Ukrainian Defense Forces continue systematic measures to reduce the military-economic potential of the Russian Federation and the ability to provide for the occupation forces. The strikes will continue until the terrorist country completely abandons armed aggression against Ukraine. More to come. Glory to Ukraine! — the statement of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reads.
