Satellite images capture scenes from the war in Russia

• New satellite images show ongoing fighting in Russia’s oil industry.

• In some oil cleaning, the anti-Drone Net can be seen, then another, black smoke rises from the damaged area.

• Russia’s energy sector is a key source of funding fueling its war against Ukraine.

New satellite images underscore that Ukraine’s long-running strikes are turning Russia’s prized oil industry into a battlefield.

Ukraine has been increasingly targeting Russian energy facilities and has stepped up its strikes in recent months, attacking more than a dozen oil refineries since early August. It’s part of a campaign aimed at putting pressure on Moscow’s main source of income, one against the other.

Images captured this month by Vantor, a US spatial intelligence firm, and obtained by Business Insider show the nets crossing more than one

A photo taken on October 2 shows anti-drone netting covering three storage tanks at an oil refinery in Russia.

Netting is nothing new and was noticed in pictures earlier this year. But it highlights how Moscow is using advanced defenses to protect its critical infrastructure from Ukrainian drone attacks. The defensive strategy has been recognized by some Russian Revisions. The manufacturer’s defenses such as these have tried to prevent and protect Russian dangers in the harbor from naval drones.

Kyiv attacked the Kuybyshevskiy area, about 500 kilometers from the Ukrainian border, in late August.

Anti-Drone nets have become common defenses in war. The Ukrainian military, for example, has been covering critical access lines with difficulty, and both wars have added cage-like netting with armored vehicles to protect against drones.

Kyle Glen, an investigator with a UK-based center for information security followed by Ukrainian strikes in the energy sector in Russia, told Business Insights on August 19, different from the beginning of August.

Attack on October 13 against Feodosia OIL TERMENT BEST IN YEARS IN RUSSIA. Long-range drones hit the last five tanks, causing a massive fire at the facility, a Ukrainian security source told Business Insider inside.

A satellite image taken on October 15, two days after the incident, shows a large plume of black smoke rising from the area.

Russia’s energy sector is an important source of income, estimated to be worth about 20% of its GDP on average. OIL and Pur Natural Exports Fuel Mobiles Moscow’s War on the Lines in Ukraine, making it a target for Kyiv.

Ukraine’s Intelligence Encuct Agency of Ukraine, also known as Hure, said in a statement on Tuesday that Russia’s oil and energy sector is an “important part” of its military-industrial complex.

“Striking power centers limit an attacker’s productivity and capabilities, reduce their financial resources, and weaken their ability to conduct a sustained military campaign,” the agency said.

The Ukrainian authorities say that the drone attack is causing a shortage of oil in Russia and in supplying a large part of the oil processing. The International Energy Agency is assessing whether a Deep-Strike-based campaign could protect the Russians’ well-planned processing prices next year.

Attacks on Russian power facilities have been carried out mostly by domestically produced drones. Ukraine has invested heavily in the development of deep weapons of force that VolOdyMymymymymymymy Helsenskyy has always been called a “long-range weapon against Russia.”

Russia, meanwhile, continues to hit Ukraine with deep strikes targeting its energy sector and other military infrastructure. Attacks at night are frequent with hundreds of missiles and drones flying over Kyiv.
