taking the video at face value.. Ukraine has shifted its focus on hitting Russian economic targets by drones.
These attacks have ramped up in and hit targets over 800 miles across Russia not knocking anything significant off for very long. However the frequency and the severity of these attacks draws one to wonder if these attacks won’t have an effect.
Russia is under sanctions for its war in Ukraine. Mostly Russia has been able to market its petroleum products but at reduced volumes and slightly less than market prices. Still output of crude and refined products necessary to conduct the war and fuel agricultural production has been cut. Supposedly Russia has stated it will reduce crude oil production by a million bbls per day.. and recently reduced product exports.
So is this true?
is it material?
Are russian energy assets at risk?
Will this impact other industries such as Russian grain production and exports?
