337 Ukrainian drones hit Russia, targeting Moscow’s largest oil depot and key infrastructure sites in other regions.

Summary

A massive Ukrainian drone strike targeted Russian oil refineries and infrastructure, including Moscow’s largest refinery, which supplies 50% of the city’s fuel.

The attack also hit the Druzhba pipeline control station, halting Russian oil exports to Hungary. With over 337 drones striking multiple regions, the operation exploited gaps in Russia’s air defenses.

Hungary, heavily reliant on Russian energy, called the pipeline attack a threat to its sovereignty.

Analysts suggest continued strikes could pressure Russia’s economy and energy dominance, potentially influencing ceasefire negotiations.

      What alternatives do they have? We’re seeing Germanys economy in free fall, VW closing plants for the first time ever, because their only alternative is US LNG, which costs massively more than the energy they had been getting from Russia.
