SOF strike Kuibyshevsky refinery in Samara region again

Ukrainian Special Operations Forces conducted a strike on the Kuibyshevsky oil refinery in Samara, Russia, on June 11, as reported by the SOF Telegram channel. In collaboration with Unmanned Systems Forces and the Main Intelligence Agency, SOF utilized drones to target the facility, resulting in a significant fire outbreak. The Kuibyshevsky refinery, owned by Rosneft, processes around 7 million tonnes of oil annually, serving as a critical fuel supplier for Russia's central regions.

It generates gasoline, diesel fuel, fuel oil, and other petroleum products, a portion of which is allocated to the aggressor state's armed forces. Previous reports indicated that SOF targeted the AVT-4 and AVT-5 primary oil processing units, along with an RVS-2000 storage tank, on June 10, causing the refinery to cease operations.
