Două mari rafinării rusești și-au oprit activitatea după atacurile Ucrainei cu drone

Oil refineries in Sîzran and Saratov have halted operations due to Ukrainian drone attacks, exacerbating fuel shortages in Russia. The Sîzran refinery was shut down on Tuesday, while Saratov's operations ceased last Friday. These disruptions come amid ongoing attacks on energy infrastructure despite a proposed ceasefire by President Trump. The damage to these facilities, particularly the main distillation unit in Sîzran, is complicated by Western sanctions limiting access to essential technology and spare parts. In 2024, Sîzran processed 4.3 million tons of crude oil, and Saratov processed 5.8 million tons.
