On September 9, Ukraine's Special Operations Forces executed a record-breaking strike on two significant Russian gas condensate plants, Novy Urengoy and Purovsky, located 3,000 kilometers away. This marked the deepest strike of the entire conflict. Both plants are situated in Russia's key oil and gas production region, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District.
The Special Operations Forces' drones traveled over 3,000 kilometers to reach the target, which was previously considered a safe rear area for the aggressor. The plants play a critical role in the gas condensate industry, handling the preparation and processing of substantial volumes of gas condensate from Yamal fields. Novy Urengoy's gas condensate processing plant can handle 19.5 million tons of raw material yearly, while Purovsky processed 13.4 million tons in 2025.
The gas condensate industry is crucial to Russia's economy, contributing to the aggressor's budget. Ukrainian drones targeted an industrial facility in Novy Urengoy for the first time on September 9, with a fire breaking out at the industrial facility. Ukrainian officials emphasized the importance of these strikes in reducing Russia's capacity to drag out diplomatic decisions.
