In a historic drone offensive, Ukrainian forces executed the most extensive drone strike ever witnessed on Moscow, directly hitting the Moscow Oil Refinery and causing an immediate cessation of its functions, as reported by Ukraine's General Staff. This strike on the capital — situated over 800 miles from the frontline in Ukraine — represents the second day of concerted Ukrainian efforts aimed at Moscow's fuel supply infrastructure. Since the start of 2024, Ukraine has significantly intensified its long-range drone operations, inflicting damage on approximately 20 percent of Russia's overall refining capability. The Moscow refinery was crucial for fueling Russian military logistical efforts. In response, Russia deployed 105 Shahed drones and four ballistic missiles targeting Ukrainian cities such as Kharkiv and Poltava, as detailed by the Ukrainian Air Force.
