Ukraine's drones hit 12 Russian fuel tankers in two days, targeting Crimea's supply
Ukraine's drone forces struck 12 Russian fuel tankers over two days in an effort to disrupt fuel supplies to occupied Crimea.
Ukraine announced that its drone forces have struck 12 Russian fuel tankers within two days as part of a campaign to disrupt fuel supplies to the occupied Crimean peninsula. The operation aims to cut off a critical logistical artery for Russian military and civilian infrastructure in Crimea, which relies heavily on fuel transported from mainland Russia.
The strikes are part of a broader Ukrainian strategy to systematically weaken Russian supply lines and logistics. Drones have been used to target both maritime and land-based assets, demonstrating Ukraine's ability to reach deep into Russian-controlled territory.
Russian authorities have not officially commented on the reported strikes, but previous incidents have damaged fuel tankers in Russian ports and sea routes. Ukrainian officials emphasize that such operations reduce Russia's military effectiveness and economic capacity to sustain its occupation.
