Drones Strike Armavir Oil Hub in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai

Strike drones hit the Armavir Line Production and Dispatch Station in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai.

The CyberBoroshno project reported on this.

The facility is a key hub in the oil-product pipeline logistics system operated by Transneft. The strike occurred during the night of March 8, 2026.

Fuel is pumped through the station via a main pipeline, stored in a tank farm, and then shipped by rail to regional distribution centers.

Because the Armavir Line Production and Dispatch Station serves as a reservoir buffer, disabling it creates a fuel shortage across the entire transportation system along this section.

The NASA FIRMS service also confirms the presence of a strong heat source at the station’s location, indicating a large-scale fire and the effectiveness of the strike. The attacked facility is located at the coordinates 45.004798, 41.052390.

Militarnyi previously reported that in the stanitsa of Novominskaya in Kanevskoy District, Krasnodar Krai, Russia, an oil refinery was on fire following a drone attack. The facility’s design capacity allows it to process up to 320,000 tons of oil per year. Its main refined products are straight-run gasoline, diesel fuel, and marine fuel oil.
