President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed a second strike on an oil refinery in Ufa, Russia.
“Once again, our sanctions responses to Russia’s prolongation of the war have reached the oil refinery in Ufa—one of the largest Russian producers of lubricants. Distance—over 1,300 kilometers from the front line,” the President emphasized.
Zelensky also noted that “in the Penza region, our weapons reached a strategic facility of the Russian military-industrial complex involved in the development and production of components for missile weapons used by the occupiers to strike our cities and communities. Distance to the target—about 600 kilometers from the front line.”
According to the head of state, the plan for the use of Ukraine’s long-range “sanctions” is being carried out daily, and this is a fair response to everything Russia is doing against Ukraine.
“Peace is needed, and this is what the Russian leadership must understand. Russia must end its war. And the Russian leadership has all the capabilities to do so. I thank every Ukrainian soldier who ensures our long-range precision,” the President said.
