Operators of the Unmanned Systems Forces struck the “Grushovaya” oil depot and the “Sheskharis” oil terminal

Operators of the 1st Separate Center and the @414magyarbirds Brigade, in coordination with the @SOF_UKR, the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (HUR), and other components of the Defense Forces, struck the “Sheskharis” oil terminal.

Also, operators of the @1usc_army , together with the SOF, HUR, and in coordination with other components of the Defense Forces, struck the “Grushovaya” oil depot in the Krasnodar Krai, russia.
Both facilities are parts of a single transshipment complex that ensures the reception, storage, and sea shipment of russian oil.

The “Grushovaya” oil depot, owned by “Chernomortransneft” within the “Transneft” structure, is one of the largest oil product storage facilities in the Caucasus. The complex includes reservoirs with a total capacity of about 1.2 million tons and serves as a key accumulation hub for the Novorossiysk oil port.
The “Sheskharis” terminal is considered the largest oil terminal on the Black Sea and in the south of russia. It is the end point of the “Transneft” main oil pipelines and one of the key export routes for russian Urals grade oil through the Black Sea.
The functioning of this complex provides multi-billion dollar revenues to the russian budget, which are used to finance the armed aggression against Ukraine.
Systematic #DeepStrike attacks on the most important strategic targets of the aggressor country will continue until russia stops its armed aggression.
USF: One step ahead!

Hitting the docks is great strategy. You can’t sell what you can’t get to market.

Hitting the storage means you have to leave the oil in the ground, because there’s nowhere to put it.

All the repairs take time, and the money they would be spending on those repairs isn’t coming in from this facility.

Just wish they could have gotten one of the tanker ships too, but they probably didn’t in case it was full and would damage the environment. But if enough empty ones get hit, nobody will insure the carriers anymore. Which means nobody will be coming to putin’s rescue by bringing his oil to market.

Mount Doom, is that you?

One of the few things Ukraine can thank Trump for. Without American support, there were no more guardrails to protect a president’s upcoming election ambitions and the energy markets. The gloves finally came off this year once it was confirmed that the Trump Admin was supporting Russia in its failed peace talks.

Bet Putin and Trump didn’t think about that result when they collaborated to yank American support 😏
