Ukraine Had Another REALLY GOOD NIGHT (video commentary)

08/13/2026

Ukraine sent 440 drones toward Russia and occupied territory overnight—more than three times the number Russia sent toward Ukraine. And enough got through to hit a major refinery 1,300 kilometers from the border, another Wildberries logistics hub, infrastructure in Crimea, and Russian military targets.

The overnight strikes were only part of the story. Russia’s Orsk refinery may now remain shut for months, Ukraine says it struck Russian drone-control infrastructure in occupied Crimea, and new battlefield reporting shows Ukrainian forces reclaiming territory even as competing maps give sharply different pictures of Russian gains. I’ll separate what is confirmed, what is claimed, and what the available evidence actually shows.
