"On the night of May 31, units of the Ukrainian Navy once again carried out a precision strike against a strategic enemy target.
As a result of the strike, two atmospheric-vacuum crude oil processing units, each with a capacity of up to 2.5 million tons per year, and petroleum product storage facilities were put out of commission," the statement said.
The Navy noted that the Novoshakhtinsk Oil Refinery is a key facility in the region’s fuel infrastructure and plays a vital role in supplying Russian troops with fuel and lubricants.
The destruction of this facility significantly reduces the enemy’s ability to provide logistical support to its military units.
