According to HUR, the images show the actions of the special unit “Prymary” (“Ghosts”), carried out in April and May 2026. The Ukrainian agency claims that the attacks targeted the main transport and supply routes used by the Russian army to support frontline operations.
According to the information provided by the Ukrainian intelligence service, the strikes would have resulted in the destruction of some stocks of fuel, ammunition and military equipment before they reached the combat units. Kiev also says the operations have disrupted supply chains, slowed the mobilization of reserves and damaged the operational capacity of Russian forces, according to Kyiv Post.
“The enemy may change routes, disperse their resources and try to hide their movements, but Prymary continues to identify critical points and deliver precise strikes”HUR representatives sent.
However, Ukraine’s HUR agency did not specify the exact locations of the attacks, nor did it present independent assessments to confirm the extent of the damage shown in the video footage.
New drone attacks on Russian oil infrastructure
Ukraine has stepped up its attacks on Russia’s energy and oil infrastructure, a strategy Kiev describes as a form of “long-term sanctions” aimed at reducing the financial resources Moscow uses to continue the war.
On Tuesday, long-range Ukrainian drones reportedly hit an oil depot in Russia’s Krasnodar region and targeted the largest oil refinery in the Moscow area. Krasnodar regional authorities announced that the remains of a downed drone caused a fire at an oil warehouse in the town of Poltavskaya, located in the Krasnoarmeysky district.
On the same day, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobianin said air defenses had intercepted 35 drones heading for the Russian capital in a span of about two hours.
Ukrainian media also reported that the Taneco and TAIF-NK refineries in Nizhnekamsk, two of the most important targets of the Russian oil industry, were targeted on Friday.
Fuel shortage in occupied Crimea
Amid intensifying attacks on energy and logistics infrastructure, there have been reports of a fuel shortage in Russian-occupied Crimea, which Ukrainian authorities blame on operations aimed at disrupting supplies to the peninsula.
Andrii Kovalenko, director of Ukraine’s Center for Combating Disinformation, argued that responsibility for the war’s economic and logistical effects rests with both the Kremlin leadership and Russian society, which he accuses of keeping Russian President Vladimir Putin in power.
