Russians continue to supply fuel to Crimea via the Crimean Bridge, but there is a catch.

Russians are transporting fuel from Novorossiysk to Crimea via the Kerch Bridge. However, in recent weeks, the frequency of fuel deliveries has decreased.
Россияне продолжают поставлять топливо в Крым через Керченский мост, но есть один важный нюанс.

Russians are transporting fuel from Novorossiysk to Crimea via the Kerch Bridge. However, in recent weeks, the frequency of fuel supplies has decreased.

This is reported by RBK-Ukraine citing "ATESH".

ATESH noted that there has been a recorded decline in the frequency of fuel deliveries in recent weeks.

This is linked to the ongoing and effective strikes by the Ukrainian Defense Forces on oil refineries and storage facilities. Each such strike weakens Russia's economic and military potential and complicates the supply for the occupying forces.

"The Kerch Bridge is a critically important logistics element for the occupiers. It is through this bridge that Russia transports fuel, equipment, ammunition, and personnel for its troops in Crimea and southern Ukraine. Its destruction would deal a significant blow to the supply of the occupying army, lead to chaos in their logistics, and accelerate the liberation of Ukrainian territories," ATESH emphasized.

Strikes on Russian Territory

Ukraine regularly strikes Russian oil refineries, depleting the enemy's logistics and military economy. Recently, a fire broke out at an oil depot in the Krasnodar region due to a drone attack near the Kanevsky district. According to the Center for Counteracting Disinformation, a facility processing up to 320,000 tons of oil per year was hit.

In particular, we recently reported that the command of the Russian army has begun withdrawing certain anti-aircraft missile units from occupied Crimea to Russia. The Russians aim to strengthen the protection of their oil refineries.
