We have new results from our long-range sanctions targeting... Russian facilities that work to support and prolong the war. An oil refinery and logistics center in Ryazan were hit. The distance from the Ukrainian border is about 360 kilometers. A site where the Russian Black Sea Fleet’s high-speed boats are based in our temporarily occupied Crimea was also hit. Long-range sanctions were also carried out against an oil refinery in the Perm region, as well as an export terminal and a military enterprise in the Rostov region. I thank our warriors for their precision, and I thank everyone who makes these long-range results possible. Russia must feel that every day of this war will only come at a higher cost for it. We need to weaken the aggressor and keep up the pressure to bring an end to this war closer.show more

This week, our warriors achieved important results in imposing... long-range sanctions against Russian facilities that fuel this war. Ukrainian drones reached Siberia and struck the oil refinery in Omsk – nearly 2,500 kilometers from Ukraine. Now, no Russian oil refinery is beyond the reach of Ukrainian weapons. Our responses to Russian strikes also targeted oil facilities in the Saratov, Rostov, Tver, Stavropol, and Krasnodar regions, as well as in Tatarstan and Bashkortostan. An airfield in the Voronezh region and a strategic enterprise in Tver were hit. Drones were also used against facilities in the Moscow, Leningrad, and Bryansk regions. Our long-range sanctions plan against Russia is firmly on track. I thank all of the units involved for their accuracy!show more

Our warriors began Ukraine’s Constitution Day with great accuracy.... Last night, our long-range sanctions reached two oil refineries in Russia. The Slavyansk oil refinery in the Krasnodar region was hit – about 300 kilometers from the frontline. We also reached a refinery in the Yaroslavl region, approximately 700 kilometers from our border. We continue our operations that weaken Russia’s ability to wage this war. Each of our long-range sanctions means fewer resources serving Russia’s war machine, and another step toward peace. We will continue to respond to Russian terror. I thank our warriors for these results! I am grateful to everyone who helps us. Everyone who defends Ukraine also upholds the power of the Constitution.show more

We continue applying our long-range sanctions against Russian facilities... that serve the war effort and finance the aggression. Last night, in Russia's Saratov, more than 600 kilometers from the front line, two strategic facilities were hit: the Saratov Oil Refinery and the Engels military air base. In the Kaluga region, the tank farm of the Lyudinovskaya oil depot was hit. In the Bryansk region, our warriors also carried out a precise strike on a site used to store, prepare, and launch attack drones. Thank you to all the warriors of Ukraine's Defense Forces who are expanding our long-range capabilities and delivering precise results. We are bringing the war back to where it came from.show more

Today, our long-range sanctions once again worked to limit... Russia’s oil revenues, which it uses to finance the war and the killing of Ukrainians. Ukraine’s Defense Forces struck the aggressor’s facilities more than 1,300 kilometers from the front line. The Bashneft-Novoil refinery was hit in Bashkortostan. In the Yaroslavl region, nearly 700 kilometers from our border, the Slavneft-YANOS refinery was hit. Our responses to Russian aggression in the Black Sea were also successful. In particular, two military patrol boats and shadow fleet vessels were struck. I thank all the warriors of the Defense Forces who are systematically expanding our long-range capabilities and thereby increasing the chances for diplomacy. Russia must choose peace.show more

Last night, our long-range sanctions targeted the occupiers’ military... logistics, oil industry, and air defense. All of this is a just response to Russia’s brutal attacks against our people. I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the Special Operations Forces for their successful work at a distance of about 300 kilometers from the frontline. Facilities on both sides of the Crimean Bridge were hit: maritime logistics used to transport oil in the Krasnodar region and an oil depot in temporarily occupied Kerch. In addition, military logistics facilities were successfully struck, along with four radar stations belonging to S-400 systems and two Pantsir systems. I am grateful to all our warriors for their precision and professionalism. Russia understands only strength, and our long-range strength is certainly working for peace. Glory to Ukraine!show more

Ukraine struck two Russian oil refineries overnight, hitting the... Slavyansk refinery in the Krasnodar region, about 300 km from the frontline, and the Yaroslavl refinery, roughly 700 km from Ukraine’s border, in another blow to Russia’s energy sector. President Zelensky: “We continue our operations that weaken Russia’s ability to wage this war. Each of our long-range sanctions means fewer resources serving Russia’s war machine, and another step toward peace. We will continue to respond to Russian terror”show more

I’m grateful to our warriors for their precision –... today, Ukraine’s long-range sanctions have once again reached Perm, which is more than 1,500 kilometers from our border. Recently, there have also been important results in Chelyabinsk – up to 1,800 kilometers away, as well as in Yekaterinburg – nearly 2,000 kilometers away. The effects of Ukraine’s long-range capabilities have also been felt in Novorossiysk, Krymsk, Tuapse, and in the Samara and Nizhny Novgorod regions. We have repeatedly offered the Russian leadership the option of moving toward peace. In response, we have received only new Russian strikes. That is exactly why Ukraine’s long-range sanctions are extending to distant locations in Russia linked to its military-industrial complex, war infrastructure, and the financing of its aggression. Every day, Russia can make a choice and end its war. And not for a few hours in order to receive our permission to hold a parade in Moscow, but in a way that protects human lives. People must be valued, not parades. There is a need to establish peace, rather than running around the world’s capitals begging for a pause on May 9. We need peace. Thank you to everyone helping bring Russia to this realization.show more

A report by Major General Yevhenii Khmara on our... long-range sanctions – a new stage in the use of Ukrainian weapons to limit the potential of Russia’s war. I am grateful to the guys from the Security Service of Ukraine for their precision. The straight-line distance is over 1,500 kilometers. We will continue to extend these ranges, and these are entirely justified Ukrainian responses to Russian terror. It is important that every strike reduces the capabilities of Russia’s military industry, logistics, and oil exports. The results are obvious to everyone. It is also obvious to everyone that Russia must end its war. It is time to move to diplomacy, and this is a signal that Moscow should hear. Glory to Ukraine!show more

Zelensky confirmed strikes on logistics centers in Russia: “Today,... Ukrainian long-range strikes successfully hit important targets in the Krasnodar and Stavropol regions, logistics centers involved in supplying the Russian army with drone components, navigation equipment, and gear, as well as another oil depot. In the waters of the Black and Azov Seas, a tanker and four dry cargo ships of the Russian shadow fleet were hit. Thank you to all our Ukrainian Defense Forces warriors for these results. We are rightly bringing the war back home to Russia. Peace is needed, and Ukraine has given the Russian side all proposals. We must force them to turn to diplomacy.” Video: 5 канал 🇺🇦show more

I met in Vilnius with President of Lithuania Gitanas... Nausėda. I informed him about the second round of negotiations that took place today in Istanbul. As long as there are no meaningful signals from Russia about ending the war, it is crucial to strengthen our defense and especially to invest in Ukrainian production. This is the foundation for peace talks. Thank you, Gitanas, and the Lithuanian people, for sharing this view. We also discussed sanctions pressure, our European integration, and reconstruction. We coordinated our diplomatic efforts. Thank you for the invitation to the summit and for all the support provided.show more

🇺🇦 "We will not give anything to the aggressor... and we will not forget anything. We clearly see that Russia represents a long-term threat to us. Europe needs long-term cooperation and real results — both in the short and long term, so that people can live peacefully," Volodymyr Zelensky once again clearly stated that he will not give any territory to Russia. ▪️ "We will not give anything to Russia as a gift." 🟠 Other statements by the President of Ukraine: 📌 "We are preparing certain steps on the front and responding to every strike by the Russians. Both the range and accuracy of our long-range sanctions against Russia are increasing. Every 1 or 2 days, strikes are carried out on Russian oil refineries" See the latest updates with us: Visionershow more

Today, I had a substantive meeting with UK Prime... Minister Keir Starmer. Our main objective right now is to stop Russian terror and force Russia into peace. We discussed the development of defense cooperation. Collaboration in this area will allow Ukraine to receive stable funding for important projects, particularly the production of interceptor drones and long-range drones. There is a good outcome from today’s meeting – an additional decision on joint production. I believe it will strengthen both of our countries. Special attention was paid to bolstering our air defense. We also have agreements on this. Thank you! An important issue is the introduction of new sanctions against Russia. Pressure must be applied to the energy and banking sectors, the shadow fleet, the companies that supply dual-use components used in the production of drones and missiles, as well as all those involved in the production of the “Oreshnik” missile system. Anything that helps Putin scale up weapons production must be blocked. I thank Keir Starmer and the United Kingdom for leadership and for all forms of support that help Ukraine protect lives and shield our people from Russian terror.show more

Selling Russian oil means financing the killing of Ukrainians.... Under the laws and customs of war, tankers transporting Russian oil are a legitimate military target. 🔹️21 July 2023: “The Ministry of Defence of Ukraine warns that starting from 00:00 on 21 July 2023, all vessels sailing in the Black Sea towards ports of the Russian Federation or Ukrainian seaports temporarily occupied by Russia may be considered by Ukraine as carrying military cargo, with all corresponding risks”. This was Ukraine’s response to a similar statement issued by the Russian Federation. Since then, Russia has attacked Ukrainian ports dozens of times, damaging many ships and killing and injuring crew members and dockworkers. 🔹️28 November 2025: Ukrainian naval drones struck two sanctioned tankers of Russia’s shadow fleet, KAIRO and VIRAT, in the Black Sea as they were heading for loading at the port of Novorossiysk. The operation was carried out jointly by the 13th Main Directorate of the SBU’s military counterintelligence and the Ukrainian Navy. Ukraine did not start this war. Every day our children, our civilians are being killed. Russian oil is a source of funding for an aggressive war and a priority military target.show more

I had a great meeting with European Commission President... Ursula von der Leyen and António Costa António Costa. We discussed the development of Ukraine’s defense industry, particularly investments in enhancing our long-range capabilities. We share a common understanding that achieving a just and lasting peace for Ukraine and ensuring security guarantees requires unity from Europe. We and our partners must remain ready to defend Ukraine with strength, as the war continues, and Russia has no intention of ending it fairly. I appreciate the adoption of the EU’s 16th sanctions package against Russia, targeting its logistics, banking sector, defense industry, and propaganda, as well as the ban on storing Russian petroleum products. Sanctions must target everything that finances Russian killings. We also discussed the progress in Ukraine’s EU accession negotiations. I look forward to the swift opening of the first "Fundamentals” cluster. Thank you for standing with us in Ukraine today. 🇪🇺🇺🇦 #SupportUkraineshow more
