Russia's economy is threatened with oil shortages - drone attacks hit Putin's weak point. Recent drone strikes hit parts of the Taneco refinery, which is among the largest in the country and can produce 340,000 barrels of fuel per day.
The Ukrainians' strategy to weaken Russia's economy by attacking oil processing camps is apparently succeeding. Economists are also concerned about rising oil prices worldwide. India, an important buyer of Russian crude oil, wants to look for other ways to procure cheap oil - shortly after the latest US sanctions package was issued.
