According to Ukraine's General Staff, the ongoing long-range strike initiative has incapacitated 42.7% of Russia's oil refining capabilities since August 2025, resulting in estimated losses for the industry of approximately $13.5 billion. In the last month alone, reports indicate that eight refineries were targeted, alongside the destruction or severe damage of over 60 fuel storage facilities. This offensive has led to notable fuel shortages, disruptions in freight logistics, and an increased dependency on imported fuel for Russia. The shifting dynamics within Russia's energy sector may affect military supply chains and future discussions regarding sanctions.
