Ukraine drone barrage hits Moscow oil hub

Ukraine launched a drone barrage that struck a major Moscow fuel storage hub and forced the closure of the capital's four airports, officials said.

Officials said the strikes disrupted airport operations across the Moscow region and led to widespread flight cancellations.

Moscow fuel hub hit

Officials said the facility targeted is a large fuel storage complex serving the region and that operations at the site were affected; authorities reported hundreds of flights were cancelled as airport control services scaled back arrivals and departures.

The strikes coincided with reported damage to fuel handling infrastructure and the temporary halt of some transfer routes, officials said, creating immediate logistical constraints for road and rail fuel movements into the capital.

Traders said the market will watch regional diesel and gasoline flows closely after the disruption; refiners and distributors typically need several days to reroute supplies around a damaged hub.

Officials said investigations and damage assessments are under way. Traders said they will monitor fuel flows and airport operations over the next 48 hours for signs of tighter local supply or wider price effects.
