Ukraine has claimed responsibility for what it described as its longest-range drone strike since the start of the full-scale war, targeting Russia's largest oil refinery in the Siberian city of Omsk, about 1,700 miles (2,735 km) from Ukrainian territory. According to Business Insider, Ukraine's Special Operations Forces (SOF) said the attack marked the deepest long-range strike carried out by its forces during the war and damaged a key processing unit at the Omsk refinery. Omsk Governor Vitaly Khotsenko confirmed that the refinery had been attacked by drones but said no casualties had been reported. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described the operation as an "important achievement," saying upgraded long-range drones had enabled Ukrainian forces to strike targets deep inside Siberia. The Omsk refinery processes about 21 million tonnes of oil annually, making it Russia's largest oil refinery and a key part of the country's energy infrastructure. Ukraine says its long-range drone campaign is aimed at disrupting Russia's oil industry, which is considered crucial to financing the country's war effort.
