What happened

Russian forces struck seven oil and gas production assets operated by Ukrnafta (part of the Naftogaz Group) in eastern Ukraine overnight, the company said, describing it as one of the largest attacks on Ukrnafta to date. The strikes destroyed equipment critical to operations, forcing several facilities to suspend production and causing significant losses in oil and gas output; no employees were reported injured. Naftogaz separately said Russian forces struck four Ukrnafta filling stations in Zaporizhzhia and Dnipropetrovsk oblasts over the same 24-hour period, and that Naftogaz Group facilities have now been hit by 287 Russian attacks since the start of 2026, more than in all of 2025 and the first three years of the full-scale war combined. Exact facility names and locations were not disclosed in the cited reporting, so the marker is placed at an approximate eastern-Ukraine reference point rather than a specific site.

When cited sources give different casualty, damage or spill figures for this event, they’re reported side by side above rather than merged into one number. See how confidence levels work.
