## Prediction

Over the next 24 hours, Ukraine is likely to attempt additional long-range drone or sabotage attacks against Russian oil, gas, or petrochemical assets beyond the immediate front, building on the Tobolsk and TANECO strikes. Targets will likely include refineries and depots in the Volga–Urals and Western Siberia that support Russia’s export mix and military logistics. Successful hits would signal an institutionalized deep-strike campaign, pressuring Russian air defense redeployments away from the front and nudging Moscow toward retaliatory salvos on Ukrainian energy nodes. Confirmation would be new fires or explosions at Russian industrial sites hundreds of kilometers from Ukraine; a sudden lull in reported long-range strikes would challenge this forecast.

## Drivers

- Multiple alerts on Ukrainian deep-strikes against ZapSibNeftekhim in Tobolsk
- Report of Ukraine drone strike on TANECO refinery in Tatarstan
- Emerging trend: Ukraine institutionalizes long‑range deep strikes into Russia’s energy heartland
- Emerging trend: Ukraine accelerates indigenous missile and drone development
