In addition, drone attacks were reported on logistical hubs of the southern supply line, such as Krasnoperekopsk and Dzhankoi. All of them are located in the catchment area of the southern supply line that supplies Russian troops in Zaporizhzhia province and in the parts of Kherson that are still occupied. A total of four Russian fuel depots were either damaged or destroyed last week. An oil storage facility in Krasnodar Krai also went up in flames. Large fires triggered by drone strikes were also reported at a refinery in Ilsky, located in Russia's Krasnodar province near the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk. Drone attacks were reported on logistical hubs of the southern supply line. Several times, for example, a fuel depot in Sevastopol in Russian-occupied Crimea was attacked, with several huge tanks destroyed. So, the Ukrainians have significantly intensified their drone attacks on Russian fuel depots over the past week in an effort to disrupt supplies for Russian troops on the front lines. This is similar to what happened in the Kherson province in the fall before the Ukrainians actually advanced with armored formations and forced the Russians to retreat from the western bank of the Dnipro River. For weeks, the Ukrainians have been carrying out preparatory measures to soften up and test Russian positions.
