Russia Expands Systematic Strikes on Ukrainian Economic Logistics Including Fuel Depots Food Processing and Railways

Russian forces on Wednesday and Thursday struck a petrol station in Kyiv, the Bunge sunflower-oil processing plant in Dnipro, and the rail and logistics hub of Pavlohrad 123. Reuters reported two killed and five wounded at the Dnipro plant, while regional officials put the Pavlohrad toll at five to seven dead and roughly 76 injured across five districts hit by drones, artillery and aerial bombs 123. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha called the Bunge strike, the second on a US-owned business in recent weeks, part of a "systematic terror campaign against American businesses," and Ukrnafta CEO Bohdan Kukura said the Kyiv petrol-station strike had "no military objective" 12. Russia's Defense Ministry, per TASS, said separate overnight strikes hit drone-production and logistics centers in Kyiv, Khmelnytskyi and Dnipropetrovsk regions, a data center in Kyiv, and port infrastructure and cargo vessels in Odesa region carrying military supplies 4. President Zelensky said Russian strikes also hit Donetsk and Kharkiv regions and called for new US sanctions, while Ukrainian forces struck an oil refinery and other facilities in Russia's Saratov and Volgograd regions 5.
