Part 5/14:

One notable recent event is the ongoing fire at Crimea’s oil terminal, which has lasted several days. This incident signals the loss of some of Crimea's remaining oil reserves, exacerbating gasoline shortages that had already plagued the region. The destruction of supply stocks directly impacts Crimea’s economy and military logistics.

Moreover, Ukraine has targeted Russia’s main supply artery—specifically, the rail connection serving Crimea. Months ago, Ukraine destroyed a Russian train in occupied territory; since then, Russia has struggled to repair or replace this vital link. Russia's reliance on alternative routes, such as the Kerch Strait Bridge, has become increasingly strained, especially since Ukraine has deliberately kept this critical passage vulnerable and under threat.
