14 August – Lukoil’s Volgograd Refinery in Volgograd (formerly Stalingrad) Oblast, which is reported to have stopped operations;18 August – a Druzhba oil pumping station in Nikolskoye, Tambov Oblast. The Russians claimed that it had been repaired within 48 hours, but there is no evidence that it has resumed operations;20 August – the Novoshakhtinsk Oil Refinery in Rostov Oblast. As of 23 August, a fire has been raging for over 60 hours and continues to spread;21 August – another Druzhba oil pumping station in Unecha, Bryansk Oblast. According to reports, a huge fire engulfed the facility. The Russians have claimed that it will be repaired within five days.
Brovdi has dubbed the refinery strike operation “Ruszkik Gaza” – Hungarian for “Russians, go home!”
