Ukraine Claims 51% of Russia's Oil Refining Capacity Disabled by Strikes

Sustained strikes on Russia's refining infrastructure create measurable supply constraints: fuel shortages have extended gas station waits to 40+ hours, diesel production has fallen ~30%, and Russia has banned diesel exports, affecting global fuel prices. The conflict's expansion onto Russian territory introduces new vulnerabilities in energy supply chains that sustain both civilian and military operations. Independent verification of damage remains unavailable, limiting assessment of the strikes' actual operational impact on Russian logistics.
