On the night of June 23, Ukrainian Special Operations Forces, in coordination with Rocket Forces and artillery units, launched a strike on the Atlas oil depot in Russia’s Rostov region.
That is according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as reported by Ukrinform.
“As part of efforts to degrade the enemy’s offensive capabilities, units of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in coordination with Rocket Forces and Artillery, struck the Atlas oil depot in Russia’s Rostov region on the night of June 23,” the General Staff stated.
The facility is known to supply fuels to Russian military units involved in armed aggression against Ukraine in the temporarily occupied territories of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions.
“We have confirmed that our weapons reached the target area. A fire was recorded. The extent of the damage is currently being assessed,” the General Staff reported, adding that Ukraine’s Defense Forces continue to take all necessary measures to weaken the military and economic potential of the Russian invaders and compel Russia to cease its armed aggression against Ukraine.
As previously reported by Ukrinform, on June 15, units of Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces, in coordination with other components of the Defense Forces, struck an important facility of Russia’s military-industrial complex in Yelabuga, Republic of Tatarstan.
