Ukrainian Drone Strike Halts Processing at Russian Tyumen Oil Refinery With 8 Million Ton Capacity
Russia’s Tyumen oil refinery in western Siberia halted oil processing on July 25 following a Ukrainian drone strike, according to industry sources. The facility, which has an annual processing capacity of approximately 8 million metric tons, was struck earlier in the day, sparking a fire that local authorities later extinguished.
The disruption adds to a widening strain on Russia’s domestic fuel market, which has experienced deteriorating supply conditions since May. Kyiv has described the campaign of strikes across the country’s energy infrastructure as an effort to sever funding for military operations, with multiple refineries targeted in recent weeks. The full duration of the shutdown and subsequent impact on fuel output remains unclear.
