Ukraine just opened a bold new front in its war against Russia — by targeting the oil money fueling Putin’s invasion. In a historic first, a Ukrainian drone strike hit a Russian oil platform in the Caspian Sea. But that’s only the start.

From pipelines to refineries to tankers in the Black Sea, Ukraine is now going after the very lifeline of Russia’s economy. This isn’t just warfare — it’s economic shock tactics, and they’re gaining support from the West.

With over 77 energy facilities struck since August and Russia’s oil output dropping, the pressure is building fast. How long can Moscow keep funding its war as Ukraine keeps turning up the heat?

Watch this 1-minute breakdown of Ukraine’s most strategic — and risky — campaign yet.

00:00Ukraine just hit Russia where it hurts the most. It's oil money.
00:04For the first time ever, a Ukrainian drone has struck a Russian oil platform in the Caspian Sea.
00:10And that's just the beginning. Ukraine has gone all in on crippling Russia's war chest.
00:14With long-range drones and sea strikes, it's now targeting oilfields, tankers, pipelines,
00:19and refineries. The goal? Turn off the tap on the billions funding Russia's invasion.
00:24Since August, Ukraine has hit 77 energy targets, more than double from earlier in the year.
00:30Refineries like Saratov have been hit repeatedly, pushing Russia's repair crews to the brink.
00:35And now, even tankers in the Black Sea aren't safe. This campaign has sparked rare anger from Putin
00:41and protests from Kazakhstan and Turkey. But Ukraine isn't backing down. They say if sanctions can't
00:47stop Russian oil, drones will. With global oil prices low and Western backing rising, Ukraine's
00:53energy war is just heating up. The question now is, how long can Russia keep bleeding before it breaks?
