Russian forces have carried out four new attacks over the past 24 hours on civilian infrastructure facilities belonging to Ukrnafta, Ukraine's largest oil producer.

The strikes targeted petrol stations that form part of Ukrnafta's broader network of infrastructure across the country. The source report does not specify the exact locations of the affected stations, nor does it provide details on casualties or the scale of the damage caused.

Context

Attacks on Ukraine's fuel and energy infrastructure have become a recurring feature of Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine in recent months. As the country's largest oil enterprise, Ukrnafta represents one of the more strategically significant infrastructure assets in Ukraine's economy, with its network of petrol stations supplying fuel to both civilians and the wider economy.

The report does not include further details on Ukraine's response or an official damage assessment, but the incident fits into a broader pattern of Russian strikes on Ukrainian civilian and energy infrastructure.
