Russia records one of Ukraine’s largest overnight drone attacks of year

Russian air defenses said they intercepted 1,198 drones overnight as flights were grounded at all four Moscow airports.

  • On Wednesday, Nov. 11, Ukrainian drones struck the Omsk Oil Refinery, injuring one person in the region, Omsk Governor Vitaly Khotsenko reported on Thursday. The attack targeted Russia's largest oil refinery, located about 2,500 kilometers from Ukraine.
  • The Omsk refinery processes more than 21 million metric tons of oil annually, serving as Russia's primary fuel supplier for military operations. Ukrainian forces previously struck the facility on July 6 and October 8, marking this as the third attack this year.
  • Ukraine's Special Operations Forces confirmed their Deep Strike units conducted the operation, with drones traveling approximately 2,500 kilometers to reach the site. The SSO called the wider campaign "long-range sanctions" against Russia's oil industry.
  • Following the strike, officials reported temporary flight restrictions at Omsk airport and power disruptions in the Neftyaniki and Amur districts. Khotsenko confirmed the injured individual's condition remained stable.
  • The Omsk facility is Russia's sole domestic producer of catalysts used in secondary oil processing, making other refineries dependent on its output. The SSO's campaign aims to degrade Russia's fuel production capacity and military supply chains.
