    Ukraine Intensifies Drone Strikes on Russian Oil Infrastructure

    Ukrainian forces have escalated attacks on Russian oil facilities, aiming to undermine Moscow’s war financing.

    According to the governor of Bashkortostan, several drones targeting a refinery in Ufa were intercepted, with debris causing a fire on-site but no reported casualties. Ufa is located over a thousand kilometers from Ukraine. Gazprom accused Ukraine of attempting a drone strike on the Turkstream pipeline, which was also thwarted. Concurrently, Ukrainian officials reported over 170 Russian drone attacks in the previous night, with most being intercepted; however, one fatality was confirmed in Dnipropetrovsk. This information was broadcast on April 2, 2026, by Deutschlandfunk.
