SBU hit one of the central nodes of the oil system of the Russian Federation - LVDS "Samara".
On November 13, long-range UAVs of the SBU Special Operations Center "Alpha" hit the "Samara" linear production and control station near the village of Prosvet, Samara Region, Russian Federation.
Damage to oil storage tanks was confirmed.
LVDS "Samara" is one of the most important nodes of the Russian oil transport system. Oil from Tatarstan, Western Siberia and other oil-producing regions of the Russian Federation comes here through main pipelines. At the station, oil with a different sulfur content is mixed to obtain the Ural export grade. It constitutes up to 50% of the total volume of Russian oil exports.
The Security Service of Ukraine continues systematic work on the destruction of important oil facilities of the Russian Federation. Such special operations complicate the preparation of oil for export and create significant problems in its transportation and storage. This is another blow to one of the main sources of filling the Russian budget, thanks to which the Kremlin finances the war against Ukraine.
