Ukraine’s Drone Strikes Extend Reach to Siberia, Challenging Russian Heartland
Ukrainian drones targeted a significant oil refinery in Omsk, western Siberia, marking one of Kyiv’s most distant strikes on Russian soil. The attack, confirmed by regional officials, resulted in a fire at the facility located approximately 2,500 kilometers from Ukraine. This event highlights Ukraine’s increasing long-range drone capabilities and comes just before a crucial NATO summit. President Zelenskyy stated that upgraded Fire Point drones were responsible for the strike, which he described as a substantial blow to Russia’s oil economy.
