Zelensky: Deep strikes on Russian oil and military targets follow approved strategic plan

According to Ukrinform, President Volodymyr Zelensky made the statement on Facebook.

“Overnight, our warriors applied Ukraine’s long-range sanctions against an oil refinery in Russia’s Saratov – about 700 kilometers from the frontline. An important result. Thank you! There were also strikes in the Rostov and Kirov regions, as well as at a military base on the Caspian Sea coast. Our Defense Forces of Ukraine are carrying out long-range missions in line with the approved priorities of the plan for such sanction,” Zelensky said.

According to the President, during the past week Ukrainian forces also successfully struck targets in the Yaroslavl, Ryazan, Voronezh, Volgograd, Rostov, Novgorod, Nizhny Novgorod, and Krasnodar regions, at distances ranging from 300 to 1,200 kilometers from Ukraine’s state border.

Zelensky expressed his gratitude to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine, and Ukraine’s intelligence agencies for their work.

As previously reported by Ukrinform, during the night of May 31, units of Ukraine’s Defense Forces struck the Saratov oil refinery, the Lazarevo linear production and dispatch station in Russia’s Kirov region, as well as other enemy facilities in Russia and in temporarily occupied territories.
