“With the goal of lowering the enemy’s advance capabilities, we are maintaining a high strike intensity on military, defense industry, and other facilities on Russian territory that sustain the occupier’s activities.” ~ Oleksandr Syrskyi, Ukraine’s Commander-in-Chief 🇺🇦👏💙💛🙏🇺🇦
#Repost @kyivindependent_official with @use.repost_ . . . Ukrainian forces struck 76 Russian industrial targets in March using long-range weapons, Ukraine’s Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said on Telegram on April 15.
“With the goal of lowering the enemy’s advance capabilities, we are maintaining a high strike intensity on military, defense industry, and other facilities on Russian territory that sustain the occupier’s activities,” Syrskyi wrote.
Fifteen of the 76 targets struck were oil refining facilities, according to Syrskyi.
Ukraine’s attacks on Russian industrial facilities have been a feature of the war for years, but the effectiveness of the campaign, particularly when it comes to oil and gas refineries and transit points, has increased significantly in the past half year.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said friendly nations facing higher fuel prices have asked Ukraine to scale back such attacks.
