Ukraine’s Kremenchuk Oil Refinery Under Fire as Russia Strikes

The current geopolitical conflict between Ukraine and Russia has taken a toll on the former’s oil industry, with the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery being at the forefront of the crisis. Located in central Ukraine, the facility is the country’s largest oil refinery and has been operating since the 1950s. However, the recent escalation of tensions between Ukraine and Russia, particularly the annexation of Crimea and the ongoing conflict in the Donbass region, has resulted in significant disruptions to the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery’s operations. In the latest development, Russia has launched a series of airstrikes on the facility, causing damage to the refinery’s infrastructure and putting its workers at risk. This attack has raised concerns about the impact on Ukraine’s oil industry, which is already struggling due to the ongoing conflict and the COVID-19 pandemic. In this blog post, we will examine the background of the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery, the impact of the recent airstrikes, and the implications for Ukraine’s

My next post in support of Ukraine is:

Next site, the Tiasmyn River (Річка Тясмин) in Kirovohrad Oblast. It's a right tributary of the Dnipro River and is 100 miles long. It starts in Kirovohrad Oblast, then flows through Cherkasy Oblast until it flows into the Kremenchuk Reservoir. A few of the cities on the river are Kamianka, Smila, and Chyhyryn. Even though it flows for 100 miles from its source to its delta, due to the river making a 180-degree U-turn, its source and delta are only 21 miles apart. There's also some important archaeological sites along the river of the Chernoles Culture, also known as the Black Forest Culture. That was an Iron Age Culture dating from 1025-700 BC that was located in the forest-steppe area between the Dnipro and Dnister Rivers.

July 17th, 2022

so Russians have hit a busy Vinnytsia city square with multiple rockets during daytime on 14.07., killing 24 people and injuring 183. there have been daily rocket strikes since, but this one is special; the cruelest one since the shelling of a shopping mall in Kremenchuk… just weeks prior. a mother was taking her 4-year old daughter for a walk, and now she has lost a leg and we have all seen a picture of her girl: dead, her little limbs pale, her whole torso torn open, disemboweled, red.

I sense now that whether I want to or not, one of my life’s missions will now be to hurt Russia and Russians. make my art, love, help others, and always do what is in my power to stab Russia back. it is not an easy or fun realization, and a daunting prospect, but I want to be fair, I want to keep my dignity. 

it can never be fair, though: no Russian mother will experience this; whatever I do will be no match to even this one death: mother walking  her child in a city center, now with her leg torn off, and a gutted corpse of her daughter. even if all my revenge fantasies come true, none of them include anything as horrific. Russians will never hurt as much as they they’re hurting us.

sadly, even when I want to wish them an exact replica of the horror they create, I just can’t.

in this scenario, Russians have nothing to threaten me with, because injury is permanent and death is irreversible. there is no bargaining here, no way to enforce conditions.

It seems as if the russians are looking into the possibility of destroying our Kremenchuk dam. Which is difficult to do with air strikes but not totally impossible. I'm sitting here like "this is fine", trying to distract myself, but the fear gradually takes a toll on my sanity.

Don't tell me you're praying for Ukraine, please. If you must say something, just say everything is going to be alright.

"At least we came out. We survived." This story is from Kremenchuk in Ukraine. The day, when Russia’s missiles hit a crowded shopping mall, became last for 21 people. Dozens more were injured but fortunately managed to survive, like the couple from this story.

The attack on Kremenchuk became one of the biggest acts of violence against Ukrainians during the full-scale war. Targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure is one of the invaders’ tactics from the very first day.

As the first anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine approaches, Bellingcat and Scripps News take stock of the immense human cost.

From the use of cluster munitions in civilian areas to the countless missile strikes on key infrastructure and the mass graves that have been uncovered in towns occupied by Russian forces, the toll on Ukraine and its people has been staggering.

Yet Ukraine continues to resist. Its armed forces, with western weaponry, ejected the Russian military from several regions of the country – including some areas which Moscow illegally annexed after a sham referendum last September. 

In the video below, you’ll hear from Bellingcat researchers who have examined key cases of civilian harm over the past year – from the Bucha massacre to Russia’s missile strike on a shopping centre in Kremenchuk and a railway station in Kramatorsk. You’ll hear from three Ukrainian journalists on the ground who have covered such events, as well as a legal scholar who explains how Russia’s leadership could be prosecuted for the crime of aggression under international law.

As journalist Kristyna Berdynskykh put it: “life in Ukraine today feels like a lottery ticket. You could leave home one morning and never return”.

Bellingcat and its Global Authentication Project have been monitoring and logging incidents of civilian harm in Ukraine since the start of Russia’s invasion. Our TimeMap aims to log all incidents where there is open source evidence of civilian harm from the war and can be viewed here.

Our wider Ukraine work can be viewed here, including investigations into the Russian military team responsible for programming missiles that have hit Ukraine, an assessment of some of the damage to cultural heritage sites caused by the invasion and analysis of some of the weapons systems that have hit civilian areas.
