The Ukrainian forces carried out a very difficult operation.
Last night, the Steel Horse oil depot in the Oryol region of Russia was hit for the second time. This facility is extremely important for the export of energy resources. Russian observer and analyst Anatoly Nesmiyan (El Murid) wrote about this in his blog on Telegram.
Most Russian citizens know nothing about the Steel Horse oil depot, which is why they ignored the information about its successful destruction.
However, in fact, this is a very important facility for the Russian economy.
It is a measuring station for the Druzhba oil pipeline, through which Russian oil is supplied to Europe.
The consequences of the strike are still unknown. Local authorities have only confirmed that a strong fire broke out at the facility after the drones arrived. If drones damage pumping equipment, repairs will take a long time.
This means that European exports to the Russian Federation will collapse. The Belarusian regime as a transit country will also suffer seriously.
“People who choose targets for strikes do not do so chaotically, but with a full understanding of the importance of this or that object. There are a lot of such inconspicuous but critically important objects on our territory. What the Russian leadership was thinking when it planned its victorious “drang nach west” [war against Ukraine - ed.] remains a mystery. No army would be enough to protect all these objects,” the Russian expert wrote.
