Summary
Ukrainian drones strike Moscow’s oil refinery again—just days after the first hit—sending shockwaves through the capital and rattling Russia’s war-funding engine. Located mere miles from the Kremlin, the attack aims to cripple oil revenue and send a defiant message to Russian civilians. Kyiv frames the strikes as proof the war’s tide is turning, while Kremlin officials dismiss battlefield shifts. Chaos erupted: flights grounded, traffic halted, oil residue spotted on cars. Gas shortages and a major retailer’s steep price hike exposed Russia’s fuel crisis, even as it prepares to import oil by sea. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials urge Russians to question their leader’s war plans, while pro-Kremlin voices label footage of the strikes as treasonous.
