Ukraine Claims Strikes On Syzran Refinery And 14 Azov Ships
The Samara Oblast plant refines about 8.5 million tons of fuel yearly for Russian forces, per Kyiv.
- Syzran, in Samara Oblast, was struck overnight July 12 and caught fire.
- Ten tankers hit in the Azov Sea carried oil evading Western sanctions.
- Four ferries struck in the same waters moved supplies for Russian troops.
Why it matters: Ships still moving sanctioned oil each day are proof the sanctions were announced, never actually enforced.
