Ukraine’s deep strikes on Russian refineries and warehouses

Cosa sapevamo all'inizio

• Ukraine launched one of the war's largest drone attacks on the night of August 15-16, with estimates ranging from around 600 to more than 800 drones.
• At least six people were killed, with one outlet reporting at least seven, showing early tolls disagree.
• Seven of Wildberries' 10 largest logistics centers have been struck since July in a near-daily campaign Kyiv links to military shipments.
• A Koledino warehouse near Moscow burned and a Rostov rocket-fuel facility was hit in the same wave.

Allora ancora aperto

• No verified total for damage value, no confirmed share of Wildberries capacity destroyed, and no confirmed refinery hits east of the Urals.
• No verified drone provenance settling Ukrainian-made versus UK-supplied claims.

Cosa avevamo detto di seguire

• Whether satellite imagery and company filings confirm prolonged closures at Koledino and reduced throughput across the Wildberries network.
• Whether follow-up assessments confirm functional damage at the Rostov propellant plant and any pause in missile-fuel output.
