APA (Azerbaijan) · Azerbaijan · Zelensky confirms Ukrainian drones struck two Bashneft refineries in Ufa, 1,500km from the front
APA's English-language bulletin notes that Zelensky described the 1,500km distance as proof of capability; frames the strike from a Caucasus energy-corridor perspective where Bashneft refinery output feeds pipelines crossing the region.
“Ukrainian forces struck targets up to 1,500 km inside Russia, Zelenskyy said, in a statement that carried a clear message about range.”
