Over the past few months, the special services have managed to significantly reduce the export of Russian oil products. And Russia's oil refining facilities are legitimate targets for the Security Service of Ukraine, says its head Vasyl Maliuk.
"Today we have a lot of trophies and the work with drones is divided into several zones: the front line and 20 km deep, 20-40 km, 40-120 km, and 120 km+. All of you are witnesses to the number of enemy targets that have been destroyed," said the SSU Head.
According to him, over the past two months, a large number of enemy oil refineries have been hit. In fact, the special services managed to reduce the export of oil products by 1/3.
"55% of their military budget is foreign exchange earnings from the export of oil products. These are our legitimate targets," Maliuk said.
