Ukraine strikes may have hit 15% of Russian refinery capacity - NATO official

Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries may have disrupted more than 15% of Russian capacity, a NATO official said on Thursday, adding that the alliance believed Moscow still lacked sufficient munitions and manpower to launch a successful offensive.

The official added that the alliance expected a concerted effort by Russia to use drones and missiles to degrade Ukraine's air defence capabilities.

NATO did not have confirmation Iran had transferred ballistic missiles to Russia, but it had no reason to believe it would not go through with the transfer once mutual beneficial terms were agreed between the two sides, the official said.
