Analysis Summary
Ukraine's SBU special forces damaged three Russian Navy warships in Crimea on April 18 — the landing ships Yamal and Azov plus an unidentified vessel — along with radar stations, communication systems, and fuel storage. The same day Ukraine's military struck four major Russian oil refineries and terminals inside Russia, part of a sustained campaign to degrade Russian logistics and air defenses. Russia has been losing roughly $100 million per day to Ukrainian strikes on oil infrastructure according to Ukrainian military estimates.
