Russia Has Lost More Than A Billion Dollars Due To Ukrainian Attacks On Tankers In The “shadow Fleet”

In just one week.

Massive attacks by Ukrainian maritime drones have dealt a critical blow to Russia’s logistics. Operations against shadow fleet vessels and oil terminals have caused the Kremlin’s revenue from maritime exports to drop by more than $1 billion in just one week.

This was reported on the television channel FREEDOM by Ukrainian military and political expert Dmitry Snegirev.

“The Russian occupiers themselves acknowledge the economic losses caused by strikes from Ukrainian drones,” Over the course of a week, Russia’s revenue fell to $1.068 billion, which is $200 million less than the previous period. “This is a serious blow to the economy,” the spokesperson emphasized.

According to him, following Ukrainian attacks on oil tankers in the Azov and Black Seas, Russia was forced to reduce oil production. According to OPEC data, production currently stands at about 8.9 million barrels per day—830,000 barrels below the quota.

- In addition, the attacks targeted port infrastructure in Azov and Taganrog. These ports handle the transshipment of grain, fertilizers, coal, and metallurgical products, including those stolen from the occupied territories. Russia has acknowledged a 35% drop in grain sales on the global market. The comprehensive operation by the Ukrainian Defense Forces is putting enormous pressure on the Russian economy: a loss of 200 million in petroleum products per week and a drop in grain exports, Snegirev stated.

He emphasized that the Defense Forces’ strikes against enemy logistics have reduced the firepower ratio in the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson sectors from 2.5 to 1.5.

“The Russians are unable to effectively use their weapons systems—specifically, their barrel and rocket artillery. As a result, the Russian occupiers’ rate of advance has dropped to a minimum.” Ukrainian defense forces at the junction of the Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Dnipropetrovsk regions have liberated 150 square kilometers of territory.

The Russians acknowledge problems with fuel and lubricants, as well as with the rotation and redeployment of equipment, due to the blockade of the Sea of Azov. As a result, Ukrainian defense forces are steadily regaining the initiative in these areas, the military-political expert concluded.
