🛢 Regarding the attacks on refineries, they have been going on for two years now, and they have undoubtedly affected the Russian oil industry. However, the real damage is much lower than one might expect from how spectacular the images look.
This is not cope, but simply the fact that all the data published by Bloomberg and other similar sources show that Russia has been able to repair facilities and rebalance production from one refinery or region to another, from one market to another, and so on.
The damage that does seem serious to me is when facilities of the military-industrial complex are attacked, since depending on the plants involved, these can be much harder to compensate for, especially those related to radioelectronics.
At the same time, I think the recent attacks on logistics are considerably more worrying.

Two #Delaware teenagers, aged 16 and 17, faced charges after knocking on doors in New Castle while wearing tactical-style vests and carrying what appeared to be a rifle, police said.
This could’ve ended so badly..
