The General Staff confirmed that the Grushovaya oil depot in Russia's largest port had been hit
On June 7 and during the night of Monday, June 8, successfully struck the Grushovaya oil depot in the Krasnodar Krai, as well as the Krasny Yar production and dispatch station in the Volgograd Oblast of the Russian Federation.
In addition to major oil facilities, Ukrainian defenders delivered precision strikes on enemy drone control centers, a radar station, and supply depots.
A series of strikes on fuel and energy complex facilities was carried out by Special Operations Forces operators in coordination with other components of the Defense Forces.
A large-scale fire broke out as a result of an effective attack on an oil depot near the village of Grushovaya Balka.
The military clarified that this production site of the “Sheskharis” transshipment complex is part of Russia’s largest seaport, Novorossiysk, and accounts for 12% of Russia’s total seaborne oil exports.
The total capacity of the complex’s tank farm is approximately 1.4 million cubic meters.
At the same time, Ukrainian drones attacked a facility in the Volgograd region, located more than 500 kilometers from Ukraine’s state border. A fire also broke out at the Krasny Yar oil storage facility following the drone strike.
This facility belongs to the Russian state-owned company Transneft.
The station is a key hub for oil pipelines in two directions that are strategic for Russia: to the Volgograd Oil Refinery and the powerful “Sheshkharis” export terminal in Novorossiysk on the Black Sea via the Kuibyshev–Tikhoretsk oil pipeline.
This was officially reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

In May, the Ukrainian Defense Forces doubled the number of strikes on Russian targets located more than 50 kilometers from the front line. At the same time, the enemy suffered heavy casualties, while the effectiveness of Ukrainian attacks and air defense operations increased significantly.
The Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine summarized the results of 358 days of operations and released data on verified losses of Russian troops inflicted by Ukrainian drones.
