Russia claimed on Saturday that Ukraine carried out a large-scale attack on dozens of targets across the country, reporting casualties at gas stations, power plants, and oil refineries in Moscow. The claim, first reported by a Russian the source and picked up by an Israeli monitoring channel, has not been independently verified. No immediate comment was available from Ukrainian officials.
The Zioneer has previously reported on a series of Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, including a massive overnight attack on hundreds of targets on July 4 and strikes on Moscow refineries on July 10. The pattern of attacks has targeted fuel depots, power plants, and refineries, exacerbating fuel shortages in Russia. If confirmed, this latest reported strike would represent a significant broadening of the campaign, with civilian infrastructure in the capital being hit.
