Ukraine struck 11 russian oil refineries and 8 defense industry facilities: results of June deep strike operations
In June 2026, the Defence Forces of Ukraine expanded their deep strike campaign against the military-industrial infrastructure of the russian federation. The strikes targeted key facilities from temporarily occupied Crimea and Krasnodar Krai to Western Siberia.
The maximum confirmed strike range exceeded 2,000 kilometers from Ukraine’s state border.
In line with Ukraine's defense strategy, the strikes were aimed at depriving the enemy of the resources needed to wage war:
- fuel;
- communications systems;
- weapons and their components production.
Ukraine's deep strike operations inflicted significant losses on russia in June. Throughout the month, units of the Defence Forces of Ukraine struck dozens of oil and gas facilities, fuel logistics hubs, defense industry enterprises, military and space communications centers, and enemy naval assets.
Operations at several of russia's leading oil refineries were halted or significantly disrupted.
The Ministry of Defence of Ukraine outlines the results of deep strike operations against the russian federation in June 2026.
Strikes against russia's oil refining and fuel logistics infrastructure
In June, the Defence Forces of Ukraine conducted long-range strikes against 11 russian oil refineries.
Tyumen Oil Refinery (formerly the Antipinsky Oil Refinery), Tyumen Oblast, >2,000 km
The facility is one of the largest oil refining enterprises in Western Siberia.
The refinery's annual processing capacity is 7.5–9 million tons of crude oil. The refinery produces petroleum products used to sustain russian military operations.
Moscow Oil Refinery, Moscow, ~500 km
The strike damaged the AVT-6 crude distillation unit, the Euro+ integrated refining unit, and destroyed storage tanks.
The strike forced the refinery to suspend crude oil processing indefinitely.
The refinery supplies up to 40% of Moscow's gasoline demand and about 50% of its diesel fuel, while also providing jet fuel to the russian capital's airports.
Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim and Bashneft-Novoil refineries, Ufa, ~1,500 km
The Ufa refinery complex is one of the largest oil refining hubs in the russian federation.
The refineries supply fuel not only to much of the Volga region but also to other regions of russia, including fuels and lubricants for russian military groupings operating in Ukraine.
Orenburg Gas Processing Plant, Orenburg Oblast, >1,200 km
Four gas-processing units were confirmed damaged, forcing the suspension of production.
The facility produces natural gas and sulfur, the latter being used in the manufacture of explosives.
The complex also supplies feed gas to the Orenburg Helium Plant, where helium and ethane are produced for use in missile technologies and aviation.
TANECO and TAIF-NK oil refineries, Nizhnekamsk, Tatarstan, ~1,200 km
The strikes hit the region’s largest oil refining complexes, which have a design processing capacity of more than 16 million tons of crude oil per year.
The facilities produce a wide range of fuels and lubricants, including products used for military needs.
Kuibyshev Oil Refinery, Samara, >900 km
The strike hit a refinery with an annual crude oil processing capacity of about 3.7 million tons.
The refinery suspended operations after the strike damaged the AVT-4 and AVT-5 crude distillation units and the tank farm.
Slavneft-YANOS Oil Refinery, Yaroslavl, ~800 km
The refinery was struck, with smoke observed rising from the facility. Its design processing capacity is 15 million tons of crude oil per year.
The refinery produces fuel that is essential to russian military logistics.
Ilsky, Afipsky, and Slavyansk oil refineries, Krasnodar Krai, ~300–400 km
These refineries supply diesel fuel and gasoline used to support the aggressor state's military logistics.
Together, the refineries have a processing capacity of more than 12 million tons of crude oil per year.
At the Slavyansk Oil Refinery, four storage tanks with a total capacity of 35,000 cubic meters were destroyed. The strikes also damaged nine more storage tanks with a combined capacity of 30,000 cubic meters, as well as a crude distillation unit.
The campaign also targeted the following fuel storage and transshipment infrastructure:
- Tamanneftegaz Oil Terminal, Taman, ~300 km
- Grushovaya Oil Transshipment Terminal, Novorossiysk, ~400 km
- Rosrezerv Temp Oil Depot, Rybinsk, >700 km
- St. Petersburg and Neste oil terminals, St. Petersburg, ~900 km
- Oil depots in Feodosia and Kerch, temporarily occupied Autonomous Republic of Crimea, ~300–350 km
Systematic strikes against these fuel logistics and storage hubs directly disrupt the flow of supplies to the occupying forces.
russia's defense industry enterprises and communications infrastructure
Throughout June 2026, Ukraine's deep strike strategy was intended to have a comprehensive impact not only on russia's energy sector but also on the enemy's technological and command capabilities. russia's losses in this sector were also significant. In total, more than eight strategic facilities were struck, including manufacturers of artillery systems, navigation electronics for missile systems, and key satellite and military communications centers.
Titan-Barrikady, Volgograd, ~600 km
FP-5 Flamingo missiles struck the facility, which manufactures artillery systems and launchers for the Iskander-M operational-tactical missile system, as well as the Topol-M and Yars strategic missile systems.
VNIIR-Progress, Cheboksary, >900 km
The strike targeted a facility that manufactures Kometa-series antennas used in Shahed-type UAVs, Kalibr cruise missiles, Iskander-M missile systems, and UMPK glide-bomb guidance kits.
Dubna Space Communications Center, Moscow Oblast, ~600 km
The strike severely damaged the center's main antennas and hardware-software systems.
The center is the largest satellite communications and relay control hub supporting the russian ministry of defense. The facility also supports intelligence collection and the coordination of russian occupation forces operating in Ukraine.
Vladimir Space Communications Center, Vladimir Oblast, ~700 km
The strike damaged the center's hardware-software systems and antenna infrastructure, disrupting communications for russian military groupings.
VZPP-Mikron, Voronezh, ~250 km
The strikes targeted a plant that manufactures electronic components for Kh-101 cruise missiles, the Iskander-K operational-tactical missile system, and the Pantsir-S1 surface-to-air gun-missile systems.
The systematic degradation of these production facilities significantly limits russia's ability to sustain the serial production of precision-guided weapons and coordinate the activities of its occupation forces on the front line.
Enemy naval forces and logistics
In June, the Defence Forces of Ukraine struck:
- Project 20380 Steregushchiy-class corvette, Kronstadt, ~900 km
- Project 10410 border patrol vessel, Sea of Azov, ~200 km
- Shadow fleet tankers WEST HORIZON and FINA A, Black Sea, ~200–300 km
- Port infrastructure and two ferries, Port Kavkaz, ~350 km.
These strikes degrade the enemy's ability to control maritime areas and sustain secure maritime logistics.
The systematic destruction of naval assets and port infrastructure not only disrupts the flow of supplies to the combat zone but also demonstrates the vulnerability of russian lines of communication far beyond the front line.
Deep strike operations: compelling russia toward peace
The degradation of russia's oil refining industry and defense industrial base directly reduces the aggressor state's military-economic potential.
The systematic destruction of russia's strategic facilities is an effective means of increasing pressure on its war machine.
The Defence Forces of Ukraine continue to compel russia to end the war.
As previously reported, in May, Ukraine's deep strike operations struck 18 russian oil refining and fuel logistics facilities, as well as four defense industry and chemical industry facilities.
