Ukraine Strikes Deep into Russia, Targeting Engels-2 Airbase Fuel Supply
Ukrainian forces successfully targeted a Russian oil depot in Engels, Saratov Oblast, disrupting fuel supplies to the nearby Engels-2 airbase. The joint operation, involving military intelligence and Unmanned Systems Forces, aimed to hinder Russian strategic aviation capabilities. This attack, approximately 600 kilometers from the front lines, reportedly caused damage to the Kristal Plant with no reported injuries. The General Staff asserted that the depot’s destruction significantly impairs Russia’s ability to launch attacks on Ukrainian civilians.
