Russia Forced to Import Gasoline by Sea as Ukrainian Drone Strikes Cripple Refineries

2026-06-22 1 Dailymotion

Russia—one of the world’s biggest oil exporters—is being forced to import gasoline by sea. Ukraine's relentless drone warfare has officially crippled 35% of Russia’s oil refining capacity. Is Putin’s economic engine completely choking?

Full Description:
The tables have turned in the economic war. In a stunning humiliation for the Kremlin, Russia is preparing to import gasoline by sea from Asia for the first time in decades. A devastatingly precise, long-range Ukrainian drone campaign has systematically dismantled Russia's energy infrastructure, knocking out 8 of the country's 10 largest refineries and causing a deepening domestic fuel crisis.

From the heart of Moscow to deep western Siberia—over 2,000 kilometers from the front lines—Ukraine's new, modernized long-range drones are bypassing air defenses with ease. The economic fallout is catastrophic: over 40 critical processing units are offline, repairs are paralyzed by Western sanctions, and the direct budget damage has already crossed $8 billion. Meanwhile, in occupied Crimea, civilian gasoline sales have been completely suspended, sparking mass panic.

In this video, we break down how Ukraine is successfully executing its "long-range sanctions" strategy to choke off Putin's war machine.
