Refinery strikes impact explosives feedstocks (ammonia, nitrogen & methanol)

Twitter thread.

We are seeing a lot of posts and articles on X about Ukraine's OWA drone strategic bombing campaign against Russian refineries .

People, including Jake Sullivan over at the Biden Adm. NSC think this is about AFU cutting off Russian oil.

They're wrong. It's about explosives.

#2 I thought Joe told the Ukes to stop hitting Russian energy infrastructure.

I guess his orders don't carry so much weight these days.

#3 Here’s a link thru Tom Cooper to an analysis of refinery strikes that suggests they come in waves 6-7 days apart. Makes sense from a BDA perspective
