🇷🇺🇺🇦 On the new drone attack on the Krasnodar Region
Ukrainian formations have again carried out a massive drone attack on energy sector facilities and military infrastructure in the Krasnodar Region.
▪️The first wave of the raid, involving more than a dozen drones, hit a military airfield on the outskirts of the village of Kushchevskaya in the Krasnodar Region. According to preliminary data, there are destructions on the territory, the extent of which is now being determined.
❗️Particular attention should be paid to the leaked footage of Emergency Ministry employees clearing the rubble of one of the buildings on the military base. As in the case of strikes on Crimea, some pro-Ukrainian citizens or simply those who do not understand the seriousness of the situation are helping the enemy assess the damage.
▪️In addition, in the Slavyansk, Seversk and Kushchevskaya districts of the Krasnodar Region, Ukrainian formations tried to attack oil refineries and infrastructure.
▪️As a result of the attack of more than ten UAVs on the territory of the plant in Slavyansk-on-Kuban, the rectification column was damaged. The resulting fire was quickly extinguished, and the refinery's operation was partially suspended.
▪️At the Ilsky Refinery, the arrival of 17 drones was recorded, resulting in damage to the primary oil refining unit, the fire lasted more than half an hour but was also extinguished.
▪️According to some reports, the Afipsky Refinery could also have been a target of the raid, but no official information on damage to the plant's territory has been received.
❗️In total, the air defense forces intercepted 66 UAVs over the Krasnodar Region, and another two over the Crimean Peninsula.
🔻In recent months, the enemy has focused on strikes on refineries and oil storage facilities. Previously, we noted that the goal of such attacks is not only to damage the enterprises as such, but also to try to provoke a rise in energy prices, which in the end can lead to increased inflation and growing discontent among the population.
The AFU are carrying out massive raid after raid, indicating a lack of shortage in drones. Due to the lack of strikes on Ukrainian facilities where UAV assembly is carried out (for example, "Antonov"), the AFU have fully established the production process. Moreover, the accuracy and characteristics of the drones have increased.
And we cannot forget about the activity of US and NATO reconnaissance aircraft and drones, which were observing the Krasnodar Region before the massive attack. Both the French E-3F and the American RQ-4B were 190 km from Sochi, and clearly were not watching vacationers on the Black Sea.
