Ukraine Drones Shut Moscow and Ryazan Refineries
Ukrainian drone strikes forced Moscow’s Gazpromneft oil refinery to halt processing after May 17 and shut down Ryazan’s major refinery after May 15, with officials saying operations were suspended to mitigate risks and could take days to restart. The attacks targeted Russia’s energy and military-linked facilities, and other oil infrastructure nearby was affected; injuries were reported in Moscow and the broader campaign underscores the impact of drone strikes on Russia’s fuel supply network.
