Ukraine launched a deadly drone attack on Friday, striking a key Russian oil depot and setting it ablaze.

Kyiv has targeted oil depots, ammunition warehouses and military bases inside Russian to deadly effect over the past few months.

The attacks have caused mayhem deep inside Russia, as Ukraine’s generals seek to weaken Putin’s formidable war machine.

Zelensky’s army hopes its drone strikes can disrupt key supplies of fuel and weapons to Russian forces on the frontlines in Ukraine.

Ukraine’s army is coming under intense pressure in the east, where it is outmanned and outgunned by its brutal enemy.

Russia has continued to make steady gains, capturing the key city of Vuhledar in recent days, as well as entering Toretsk.

The Russian advance continues to bear down on Pokrovsk, a vital logistics and transport hub for Ukraine’s eastern army.

On Friday, Ukraine launched a wave of drone attacks on a key fuel depot in Rovenky in occupied Luhansk.

The depot is just over 250 km from Pokrovsk and presumably a major source of fuel for Russia’s Donbas army.

The attack caused a raging inferno to break out, with images showing the complex consumed by giant flames.

Ukraine’s General Staff later confirmed the strike in a statement posted to its social media channels.

“Oil and petroleum products were stored at this base, which were supplied, among other things, for the needs of the Russian Army,” they said.

Russia’s Ministry of Defence said it had intercepted and destroyed 47 Ukrainian UAVS overnight.
