All that petroleum that won't be able to fuel Russia's war machine.

I feel sorry for Pootie and his troops.

Information so far states that the oil depot hit was the Druzhba Pipeline. Below is information regarding the Depot from Wiki.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Druzhba_pipeline

"The Druzhba pipeline (Russian: нефтепровод «Дружба»; also has been referred to as the Friendship Pipeline and the Comecon Pipeline) is the world's longest oil pipeline and one of the biggest oil pipeline networks in the world. It carries oil some 4,000 kilometres (2,500 mi) from the eastern part of European Russia to points in Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany.[1] The network also branches out into numerous pipelines to deliver its product throughout Eastern Europe and beyond."
