Drone Strikes on Refineries Reduce Russia’s Fuel Exports
The intensification of Ukrainian drone attacks on oil
refineries in Russia has led to a significant decline in fuel production and
exports, international outlets report, citing industry sources.
The strikes targeted key energy infrastructure facilities,
causing disruptions at several major refineries. As a result, both processing
volumes and fuel supplies to foreign markets have decreased.
Experts note that the drone attacks are increasing pressure
on Russia’s energy sector, which is already facing government-imposed export
restrictions aimed at stabilizing the domestic market.
In addition, the decline in exports could impact budget
revenues, where the oil and gas sector traditionally accounts for a substantial
share.
If the attacks continue, Russia risks not only a drop in export earnings but also a potential domestic fuel shortage, adding further strain to the economy.
