Russia awakes to biggest attack on Russian soil since World War II
The biggest attack on Russian soil since the Second World War continues as waves of attack drones continue to fall on Russian oil refineries, military bases, and security services.
At least 60 drones were spotted over not less than seven Russian regions overnight on March 13, with at least seven more in a morning wave, Russia’s Defense Ministry announced.
A major oil refinery is ablaze in Ryazan, military bases were targeted in Voronezh, and an FSB building was damaged in Belgorod as multiple waves of drones continue to fall in regions across Russia.
A missile threat was also reported by the Governor of Kursk Oblast.
The waves of drones are a continuation of attacks on March 12 that saw Russia deal with at least 25 drones over nine regions that struck at least two oil facilities.
A Russian Air Force base in Buturlinovka and a military airfield in Voronezh were targeted in the mass wave of air strikes, an informed source told NV on March 13.
It is believed that the strike was organized by Ukraine’s security service with other representatives of the Defense Forces, the source told NV.
The consequences of the attack are still being clarified.
Part of the city of Voronezh was blocked, including the Southwest Market, after a drone attack, while another community in the region was left partly without electricity.
Some districts in Buturlinovka are experiencing power outages following a drone attack, local outlet ASTRA reported.
Major oil refineries in three Russian regions were the main targets of the overnight attack organized by the Ukraine, a source told NV.
“Our task is to deprive the enemy of resources,” he said.
Large oil refineries in Ryazan, Kstovo of Nizhy Novgorod Oblast, and Kirishi of Leningrad Oblast – all among Russia’s five largest – were targeted in the mass drone attack, he said.
The attacks are a continuation of a series of special operations against enemy refineries that the Ukrainian army had previously launched, the source said.
“We are systematically implementing a well-calculated strategy to reduce the economic potential of the Russian Federation,” the source added.
“Our task is to deprive the enemy of resources and reduce the flow of oil money and fuel that Russia directs straight to the war and the killing of our citizens.”
“This work will be continued,” pledged Andriy Yusov, a representative of Ukraine’s military intelligence.
