Oil refineries are very large, very fragile, very flammable and very expensive. They are THE target to hit as it hits Russia right in the wallet.

And <=1000km is not at all difficult anymore with modern drone tech. This was already possible for a long time, but the tech has gotten so incredibly cheap and light.

Makes sense. I just didn't know those drones had that kind of range. That's pretty impressive. And pretty scary actually...
