Both logistics and revenue were hit as Ukraine strikes Russian oil platforms in the Caspian Sea and supply depots on land. The V. Filanovsky, Yuri Korchagin, and Valery Grayfe platforms sustained direct hits. These Lukoil assets are vital for Russia’s economy. The strike aims to cut off the funds that support the Russian military.
The platforms have been targeted since December. Damage assessment is ongoing. Lukoil has not commented. This economic warfare is combined with strikes on military logistics. A warehouse in Kherson was hit, disrupting supplies for Russian troops.
In Luhansk, a Buk-M3 air defense system was destroyed. This strike weakens Russian defenses in the occupied region. The destruction of this system opens up the skies for Ukrainian aircraft.
The energy war continues with attacks on infrastructure. Russia targets Ukrainian power plants, while Ukraine hits Russian oil assets. This strategy aims to inflict maximum economic damage.
A drone attack on Voronezh killed one person and injured four. 17 drones were neutralized. This strike on Russian territory demonstrates Ukraine’s reach and ability to disrupt rear areas.
