On the night of November 11, 2026, Russian troops launched a strike on a Naftogaz Group facility in the Dnipropetrovsk region. This was reported by RBC-Ukraine citing the company's press service. As a result of the attack, a large-scale fire broke out on the enterprise's territory, and equipment was damaged.
Large-Scale Fire and Damaged Equipment
According to the Naftogaz press service, a major fire broke out at the production site during the strike. Company specialists have already begun assessing the extent of the equipment damage. At the time of publication, exact damage figures were not disclosed; the company is coordinating further actions with local authorities.
"None of the Employees Were Injured"
Acting Chairman of the Board of Naftogaz, Serhiy Fedorov, stated that at the time of the attack, employees were in shelters and none of them were injured. He also noted that SES (State Emergency Service) rescuers quickly arrived at the scene and thanked them for their "prompt and professional work." This confirms that the threat to personnel life was minimized due to adherence to safety protocols.
Series of Attacks on Oil and Gas Infrastructure
The strike in the Dnipropetrovsk region is the latest in a series of attacks on Naftogaz Group facilities. On the night of November 7, Russian troops attacked the company's oil and gas facility in central Ukraine three times. On the morning of October 21, gas production infrastructure in the Kharkiv region was attacked—a drone hit one of the units at the production site. On the night of October 15, a strike hit gas production infrastructure in the Poltava region, and on the night of October 12, a facility in the Kharkiv region was hit, causing a fire and damaging critical equipment.
Current Situation
Currently, Naftogaz specialists are assessing the damage caused by the November 11 strike and coordinating further actions with local authorities. The company is not disclosing details about equipment restoration or the timeline for resuming operations at the damaged sites. The recurrence of attacks on gas production infrastructure in several regions over recent weeks indicates the systemic nature of strikes on the energy sector.
