Russia intensifies attacks on frontline gas stations: What's behind the enemy's new tactic?

Following Ukrainian strikes on logistics facilities, the occupiers have turned to targeting frontline gas stations. They are using Shahed attack drones as well as other fixed-wing and rotorcraft UAVs, according to Serhii "Flash" Beskrestnov, an adviser to Ukraine's defense minister.

Gas stations in the Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, and Sumy regions have already come under attack.

The defense minister's advisor stresses that civilian gas stations do not affect military fuel supplies. Such attacks are aimed at terrorizing civilians.

"Will residents be left without fuel? Of course not. Because we are Ukrainians—we will find ways to organize logistics, distribution, and sales of fuel and get refueled," Beskrestnov said.
