Summary
A massive Ukrainian drone strike targeted Russian oil refineries and infrastructure, including Moscow’s largest refinery, which supplies 50% of the city’s fuel.
The attack also hit the Druzhba pipeline control station, halting Russian oil exports to Hungary. With over 337 drones striking multiple regions, the operation exploited gaps in Russia’s air defenses.
Hungary, heavily reliant on Russian energy, called the pipeline attack a threat to its sovereignty.
Analysts suggest continued strikes could pressure Russia’s economy and energy dominance, potentially influencing ceasefire negotiations.
It has a huge effect on Hungary. The very pipeline that Hungary used to buy gas is currently non-operational, and gas makes up the majority of Hungary’s power generation.
The Hungarian president is pissed about the attack. He’s already denounced it and said it threatens Hungarian sovereignity.
It is non-operational, but not because of this strike to a refinery. These are two wholly separate attacks.
OP is about an air strike to a refinery.
