Massive Blasts Rip Through Russian Port Shadow Fleet!
Russia’s oil infrastructure is under siege. In a sweeping escalation, Ukraine has expanded its campaign from targeting oil refineries and storage facilities to now striking vessels in Russia’s shadow fleet—crippling the export system that props up Moscow’s war economy. These precision attacks have left behind burning tankers, destroyed depots, and disrupted refineries across Russia, from Ust-Luga near Saint Petersburg to Saratov and even Chechnya. As Ukrainian drones penetrate deeper into Russian territory and bypass depleted air defenses, Russia’s ability to refine, store, and ship oil is breaking down at every stage. The scale, range, and coordination of these attacks show that Ukraine’s economic warfare is intensifying in both ambition and effect. And with Russia’s budget deficit already ballooning, the destruction of its energy lifelines is now a central front in the war.
