## Prediction

Over the next 24 hours, Ukraine is likely to launch follow-on drone and missile waves targeting Russian oil terminals and power infrastructure in western Russia and occupied Crimea, building on the St. Petersburg terminal fire and Tavricheskaya power plant strikes. Russian military logistics, rail movements, and Black Sea–related basing in Crimea will be further disrupted, with local blackouts and fuel rerouting. This deep-strike tempo is intended to impose economic pain and complicate Russian war-sustainment planning, indirectly tightening Moscow’s refined product export capacity. Confirmation would be new fires or explosions at Russian depots, power plants, or rail hubs; denial would be clear evidence of a deliberate operational pause in Ukrainian long-range strikes despite demonstrated capacity.

## Drivers

- Reports of up to 310 drones launched toward Crimea and western Russia
- Confirmed attack and fires at the Tavricheskaya thermal power station
- Reported Ukrainian strike and smoke at an oil terminal near St. Petersburg
- Emerging trend: mutual Ukraine–Russia deep-strike energy infrastructure warfare
