Ukraine successfully conducted another drone strike on Russia’s oil infrastructure.

On January 29, the Ukrainian military reported that it had successfully hit a Russian oil refinery and a pumping station on a crucial crude pipeline as Kyiv intensifies its assaults on the aggressor’s energy system. Ukrainian forces attacked an oil-pumping station on the Baltic Pipeline System-2, which transports Russian crude to the port of Ust-Luga, Russia’s second-largest port on the Baltic Sea, according to a Ukrainian official.

Additionally, drones targeted an oil refinery in Kstovo, located in the Nizhny Novgorod region, igniting a fire at the facility, which supplies fuel to the Russian military, Ukraine’s General Staff stated in a Facebook post. Lukoil’s NORSI refinery, Russia’s fourth largest, is in Kstovo, east of Moscow and approximately 800 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. The NORSI refinery has previously been targeted by long-range Ukrainian drones.

Furthermore, Russian petrochemical giant Sibur temporarily halted operations at its plant in Kstovo on Wednesday morning after debris from a Ukrainian drone ignited a fire. The company reported that the blaze was later contained, and there were no casualties.
