In Taman, SBS units destroyed 12 oil storage tanks and struck four oil refineries in Russia

Over the course of four days, Ukrainian drones struck a maritime terminal and four oil refineries on Russian territory.

The “Taman” seaport in the village of Volna in the Krasnodar Krai, where on July 30, 12 storage tanks with a capacity of 5,000 metric tons each were destroyed—equivalent to the volume of about 1,000 railroad tank cars. The fire at the facility covered an area of more than 17,000 square meters. The operation was carried out by the “Birds” unit of the 1st Operational Center of the Security Service of Russia (SBS), in conjunction with the 413th Separate “Raid” Unit of the SBS and the Security Service of Ukraine.

In addition, units of the Defense Forces and special services struck four Russian oil refineries: “Bashneft” in Ufa and the Saratov Oil Refinery (both on August 2), “Lukoil-Volgograd Oil Refinery” in Volgograd (July 31), and “Lukoil-Permnaftorgsintez” in the Perm Region (July 30).

This was reported by Robert Brovdi (“Madyar”), commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces.

On the night of August 1, the Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a series of strikes against key military facilities of the Russian occupation forces in the temporarily occupied Crimea and in southern Ukraine. The strikes targeted warehouses, railway bridges, a maintenance base, a radio-electronic reconnaissance unit of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, and other military logistics facilities.

On the night of August 1, drones attacked several temporarily occupied cities in Ukraine. According to reports from monitoring Telegram channels, fires broke out in Zuhres, Berdiansk, Luhansk, Dolzhansk, and Sevastopol following the strikes.

As a reminder, the Russian online marketplace Ozon evacuated employees from its logistics center in Zelenodolsk (Tatarstan) due to the threat of an attack by Ukrainian drones. After the alert ended, the warehouse resumed normal operations.

On the morning of July 31, drones attacked a warehouse complex in Zelenodolsk (Tatarstan, Russian Federation), where the logistics facilities of the Ozon and Wildberries marketplaces are located. Following this, a number of Ukrainian sources reported that strikes on Ozon warehouses might continue.
