"On the evening of March 23, 2025, from 21:00-21:50 (18:00-18:50 GMT), Russian air defenses repelled an attack by the Kiev regime involving four Ukrainian drones on the Glebovskoye gas condensate field on Cape Tarkhankut in Crimea, which is used to supply gas to residents and the economy of the Russian peninsula," the statement said.
On Saturday morning, Kiev carried out two drone strikes on the Valuyka gas distribution station in Russia's Belgorod Region, damaging the facility’s technological equipment, the ministry said, adding that Ukraine has continued its attacks on energy facilities in Russia, using multiple launch rocket systems HIMARS.
Ukraine's attacks on energy infrastructure, including international ones, on Russian territory prove Kiev's inability to negotiate, the statement added.
