Original: Ukraine claims its attacks have taken out more than half of Russia's oil refining capacity
Ukraine says its long-range drone and missile attacks have knocked out more than half of Russia's oil refining capacity, according to claims picked up by major outlets including ABC News. The strikes, aimed at refineries deep inside Russia, are intended to cut the fuel revenues funding Moscow's war effort. If accurate, the damage would be a significant blow to Russia's energy sector, though the scale of the impact is difficult to verify independently.
