Quote: "A successful strike on the refinery was confirmed, followed by a fire at the plant. Early reports indicate that the AVT-6 primary oil refining unit was hit. The extent of the damage is being assessed."
Details: The General Staff noted that the Lukoil-Nizhegorodnefteorgsintez refinery is one of the largest oil refining facilities in the Russian Federation. The plant has a design processing capacity of around 17 million tonnes of crude oil per year.
The refinery produces petrol, diesel fuel, aviation fuel, lubricants and other products used, among other things, to supply the Russian armed forces.
Ukraine's defence forces also struck a Russian drone storage facility near temporarily occupied Kamianka in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, a railway bridge over the Siverskyi Donets River near occupied Stanytsia Luhanska, which Russian forces use for military logistics and the transport of personnel, weapons and military supplies, as well as a Russian command and observation post near Vilshana in Kharkiv Oblast.
