## Prediction

In the coming seven days, Ukraine is likely to expand its drone and missile campaign against Russian oil depots, refineries, and key rail junctions feeding the front. These strikes will seek to offset Russia’s mass firepower by stretching its air defenses and imposing economic pain via export disruptions and local fuel shortages. If successful, they will raise insurance costs and operational risk for Russian energy logistics, with knock-on effects on global oil sentiment. Confirmation would come from verified fires at multiple Russian energy and rail sites; denial would be limited or no successful strikes beyond the immediate border regions.

## Drivers

- Emerging trend emphasizing Ukrainian deep-strike drone warfare against Russian energy and logistics
- Escalatory Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy and defense plants
- Demonstrated Ukrainian capability to hit refineries and depots in prior months
