"Escalating Tensions: Ukraine's Strikes on Russian Oil Facilities Draw International Concern"

TL;DR Summary
Ukrainian intelligence reports successful UAV strikes on 12 Russian oil refineries, with some facilities as far as 900km from Ukraine, impacting Russia's domestic fuel market and likely disrupting at least 10% of refinery capacity. Russia plans to deploy air defense systems to protect the refineries, but the scale of the energy industry makes it unlikely to protect all vulnerable facilities.
