Russia has halted or scaled back fuel production at nearly all major refineries in its central region following drone strikes by Ukraine. The affected facilities represent a combined capacity of 83 million metric tons per year, or roughly 25% of total national refining. This disruption threatens Moscow's federal budget, which relies on oil and gas taxes for approximately 25% of its revenue.
