On the night of June 28, Ukraine struck two oil refineries in Russia in the Krasnodar and Yaroslavl regions.

This was reported by President Volodymyr Zelensky.

We are talking about the “Slovyansky” Refinery in the Krasnodar Territory (approximately 300 km from the front line), as well as the Yaroslavl Refinery, which is 700 km from our border and is one of the largest oil refineries in the Russian Federation.
