Several strikes blew up huge swathes of the Baltic Sea port of Primorsk — which processes at least a million barrels of oil per day in a market already crippled with rising prices over the Iran war.

Drones struck fuel storage tanks at the port

21st of March- Ukraine launched nearly 300 drones at Russia overnight — in one of its largest barrages since the start of the four-year-old war.

24th of March- Russia launched 948 drones at Ukraine in one day, plus 34 missiles .

Ukraine needs to hit a lot of critical infrastructure to balance things out.
