In a strategic maneuver, Ukrainian drones have successfully targeted a Russian oil depot located in the western region of Pskov. The attack resulted in significant explosions and a subsequent fire, as confirmed by a Ukrainian SBU security service official on Thursday.
The operation is part of a broader strategy to disrupt Russia's military logistics. 'The destruction of oil depots directly impacts the enemy's ability to conduct combat operations, advance and manage reserves,' noted the official in conversation with Reuters.
This development highlights an ongoing tactic to systematically undermine Russia's military capacity by targeting critical infrastructure, thereby complicating its operational capabilities in the conflict.
