The Ukrainians also struck a Pacific Fleet forward command post in Kursk Oblast, as per the GenStaff. The region is located about 6,000 km from the Pacific.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) targeted the Ryazan Oil Refining Company, a key supplier to the Russian army, and a forward command post near Korenevo in Russia’s Kursk Oblast, according to the General Staff on Facebook.
According to the General Staff, units of the AFU Unmanned Systems Forces and the Defense Ministry’s Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR) conducted another strike on the Ryazan Oil Refining Company, which supplies fuel to the Russian military.
