Ukraine Hits Ninth Russian Oil Refinery Since Start of November
Friday, November 13, 2026
Ukrainian forces struck a Russian refinery in the Volga region on Friday, marking the ninth refinery hit since the start of November, according to Bloomberg. The strikes occurred after US-mediated peace talks between Ukraine and Russia concluded earlier in the week. Bloomberg reported that Russian diesel exports declined in early November amid the renewed Ukrainian attacks on refineries, though overall oil-product shipments increased due to stronger dirty-fuel exports.
