In response to an emotional address to Putin, Zelensky maintains a resolute stance.

In the heart of Kyiv, journalist Christoph Wanner reports on the escalating attacks on Russian oil infrastructure by Ukraine. The attacks, which have been ongoing since September 15, 2025, are causing significant fuel shortages and supply issues for the Russian army.

Ukraine has been relying on drones for these attacks, a strategy that has disrupted Russian fuel supplies and military logistics. However, the manufacturers of these drones have not been explicitly identified in the available sources.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has described burning refineries and oil depots as the 'best sanctions.' This strategy has resulted in environmental risks associated with the attacks on Russian oil infrastructure. The attacks on oil terminals and tankers in Primorsk and Ust-Luga have been particularly damaging, causing further concerns about the potential environmental impact.

The cost of the war for Kyiv and its Western partners is a significant burden. Partners like Germany are facing billions in expenses. Despite the financial strain, Ukraine continues to intensify its attacks on Russian oil infrastructure, aiming to inflict further damage on the Russian military and economy.

As the situation continues to evolve, Christoph Wanner will continue to report on the reasons behind Ukraine's reliance on drones in its attacks and the ongoing environmental risks associated with these actions. The world watches on, awaiting the next move in this complex and dangerous conflict.
