SBU strikes third Russian oil production platform in Caspian Sea – source

A source in the SBU told this to Ukrinform.

This time, the strike hit a drilling platform at the Rakushechnoye field (named after Valery Grayfer).

"The drone's onboard camera recorded a successful hit in the area of the platform's gas turbine unit," the source said.

Earlier, SBU drones had already hit ice-resistant oil production platforms at the Filanovsky and Korchagin fields in the Caspian Sea, leading to a shutdown of production processes at those sites.

"The SBU continues to systematically reduce petrodollar revenues flowing into Russia's war budget. All facilities that ensure the financing of aggression against Ukraine are absolutely legitimate targets," a well-informed SBU source said.

Earlier today, the SBU struck a tanker belonging to Russia's shadow fleet for the first time in neutral waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
