'Selfish' Zelensky worsens global oil crisis by bombing Russia refinery as ally Trump shuts Hormuz?

Published on May 21, 2026 11:47 pm IST

Ukraine struck Russia’s Syzran oil refinery deep inside Samara region, escalating Kyiv’s growing “war on oil” campaign against Moscow. Zelensky described the attack as another “long-range sanction” on Russian energy infrastructure as massive fires erupted at the Rosneft-linked facility over 800 km from Ukraine’s border. The strike comes amid rising fears of a wider global energy shock, with oil markets already rattled by geopolitical tensions and supply disruptions.
