In the temporarily occupied Rovenky of the Luhansk region, a strike hit the Russian Federation's oil depot. The damage to the facility is quite significant, according to the Telegram channel of the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, Artem Lysohor.

"In the occupied territory of Luhansk, oil depots are going up in flames one after another. First in Luhansk, then last night in Rovenky. The damage is substantial, and there are no fuel reserves left," he stated.

As the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration pointed out, despite what local collaborators and Russians might say, they overlooked another oil processing facility located quite far from the front line.

"Refueling military equipment will become even more challenging. Most likely, they'll have to rely on bases located in Russian territory. However, the refuelers will need to travel quite a distance," Lysohor remarked.

Airstrikes on oil depots and refineries in occupied territories

Russia occupied parts of the Luhansk region in 2014, including Rovenky and Luhansk. It's worth noting that the temporarily occupied Rovenky is over 100 km away from the front line.

It's noteworthy that explosions at oil depots and refineries are constantly occurring in Russia lately. Temporary occupied territories of Ukraine are no exception. Just on May 7, there were explosions in Luhansk. Occupiers claimed there was an airstrike near a local oil depot, causing fuel shortages in the city. And on May 10, there were reports of explosions at an oil depot in Rovenky.
