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.
That’s advancing and is not negligible.
It’s quite a big claim that capturing 0.7 percent of a country is in any way significant.
I am not aware of any mechanic that would cause such a small change of territory control to have any noteworthy effect on a war’s result. If the 0.7 % are indeed significant, how?
