Kirishi processes about 20 million tons of oil annually, making damage there relevant to Russia’s military fuel supply and war budget.I also assess the reported car bombing of Olenivka prison official Dmitry Nelyov in occupied Donetsk, Russia’s drone attacks on Kyiv and Ukrainian book warehouses, battlefield pressure near Kostyantynivka and Pokrovsk, and the intelligence warning of a possible Russian northern threat toward Chernihiv or Kyiv. Finally, I consider gasoline shortages and rising AI-95 prices across Russia—and what they may reveal about the strategic effects of long-range strikes.00:00 Ukraine’s Large-Scale Drone Strike Campaign02:17 Kirishi Oil Refinery and Russia’s War Economy05:00 Sevastopol, Rostov-on-Don, and Additional Targets08:16 Olenivka Prison Official Car Bombing09:57 Russia’s Drone Attacks on Kyiv11:58 Battlefield Situation and Helicopter Near Miss13:30 Could Russia Open a Northern Front?14:58 Russian Gasoline Shortages and Price Spikes16:36 Viewer Questions and Ukraine Support Campaign#UkraineRussiaWar #KirishiRefinery #RussianAirbases #LongRangeDrones #Olenivka #RussianFuelShortageFacts over noise.
