Russian drones strike four Ukrnafta fuel facilities in Kyiv, Zaporizhzhia and Dnipropetrovsk regions
Last editorial update:
Over the past 24 hours ending 6 September 2026, Russian forces conducted four drone attacks on Ukrnafta civilian fuel infrastructure: one facility in Kyiv Oblast (evening 5 Sept, fire and equipment damage), two in Zaporizhzhia (storage building and another station overnight), and one in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (morning 6 Sept). No casualties reported. Company stated operations continue and facilities are being restored where possible. This forms part of intensified strikes following Putin's 1 September order for massive attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
Why it matters
Direct security threat to energy-related logistics and fuel supply chains supporting generation, transport and construction for renewable projects. Hits in Kyiv region (central) raise risk premiums for western/central Ukraine project origination. Underscores need for hardened, distributed assets and insurance solutions for 5-100 MW solar/wind/BESS investors assessing physical risk.
