Drones visited Gazprom's giant plant deep in Bashkortostan
Distance is officially becoming a purely theoretical concept for Russian oil infrastructure.
Overnight, long-range drones flew all the way out to Bashkortostan to pay a visit to Gazprom Neftekhim Salavat, one of the largest petrochemical complexes in the country. Locals woke up to sudden blasts, followed by the classic silhouette of black smoke rising over the facility.
Meanwhile, the Afipsky Oil Refinery down in Krasnodar Krai caught fire after receiving its own batch of aerial greetings. Official channels immediately rolled out the standard line about falling debris triggering accidental fires, but massive industrial blazes have a stubborn habit of speaking for themselves.
Hiding a prized petrochemical hub fifteen hundred kilometers behind the front line simply does not guarantee quiet nights anymore.
