The Security Service of Ukraine, together with the Ukrainian Defense Forces, struck an aircraft plant in Yevpatoria in occupied Crimea and infrastructure at the port of Taman in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai.
“The Security Service of Ukraine, together with the Ukrainian Defense Forces, carried out another series of successful strikes on Russia’s military, logistics and oil refining infrastructure,” the statement said.
In occupied Yevpatoria, two hangars used to store aircraft and a production workshop at the Yevpatoria Aircraft Plant were hit.
Infrastructure at the port of Taman was also struck, where a large-scale fire was reported.
In addition, the Lukoil-Volgogradneftepererabotka oil refinery was successfully hit. It is one of Russia’s largest oil refineries, with a processing capacity of around 15 million tonnes of oil per year. The refinery produces gasoline, diesel and aviation fuel.
“Every Russian defense industry facility that is hit, every burning refinery or port, is another step toward weakening Russia’s war machine,” the SSU stressed.
