Ukraine doubled its drone strikes on Russia energy infrastructure this year, hitting 16 oil refineries between January and May. The campaign knocked out 700,000 barrels per day of refining capacity as 35 primary distillation units fell offline. These disruptions limit Moscow's ability to fund its military through oil taxes, which provide 25% of federal revenue.
