Ukrainian Defense Forces strike oil facilities in Krasnodar and Volgograd regions

According to Ukrinform, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported this on Facebook.

In the Krasnodar region of the Russian Federation, the Grushovaya oil transshipment terminal near the village of Grushovaya Balka was struck. A fire was reported on the facility’s grounds. The extent of the damage is being assessed.

The Grushovaya oil depot is part of the Sheskharis transshipment complex—the terminus of major oil pipelines in the south of the Russian Federation. The facility handles the reception, accumulation, storage, and transshipment of crude oil and petroleum products via the seaport of Novorossiysk. The total capacity of the complex’s tank farm is approximately 1.4 million cubic meters, with the main storage load concentrated at the Grushovaya oil depot, the General Staff noted.

The Defense Forces also struck the Krasny Yar LPDS in the Volgograd region of the Russian Federation. A fire broke out on the site. Information regarding the results and extent of the damage is being clarified.

“The Krasny Yar LPDS is a key facility on oil supply routes in two strategic directions: to the Volgograd Oil Refinery and onward to the Sheskharis export terminal in Novorossiysk via the Kuibyshev–Tikhoretsk oil pipeline,” the General Staff noted.

A radar station was destroyed in the Kabardinka area of the Krasnodar region, Russian Federation.

Russian drone control centers were destroyed in the areas of Novobohdanivka and Novivanivka in the Zaporizhzhia region, Voskresenka in the Donetsk region, as well as Cherkasskaya Konopelka in the Kursk region (Russian Federation).

In the Zaporizhzhia region, a workshop belonging to a Russian invader drone unit in the Burchak area was struck.

The Defense Forces also struck Russian logistics depots in the Vasylivka area of the Zaporizhzhia region and the Zelene Pole area of the Donetsk region.

“Among other things, our troops struck enemy troop concentrations in the areas of Berestok in the Donetsk region, Stepnohirsk in the Zaporizhzhia region, and Basivka in the Sumy region,” the General Staff added.

In addition, during the verification process, the results of the June 6 strike on the Ust-Labinsk oil depot in the Krasnodar region of the Russian Federation were confirmed—a loading and unloading truck ramp, fuel tanks, and two tankers containing fuel and lubricants were damaged.

As reported by Ukrinform, units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces struck oil depots in the temporarily occupied Crimea, an FSB command post, and other Russian military facilities.
