Russian attack damages OKKO gas station complex in Ukrainian capital

“The gas station team acted in a coordinated manner and followed safety protocols. Employees quickly suspended operations and moved to a shelter in accordance with instructions. Fortunately, no one was injured, and that is the most important thing for us. Emergency services are currently working at the site. We are assessing the extent of the damage and determining the scope of the necessary repairs,” the company said.

Earlier, analyst Clément Molin said Russia had already attacked 160 gas stations in Ukraine and warned of the main threat posed by such strikes.

Serhiy Kuyun, director of the A-95 Consulting Group, discussed the potential consequences of Russian attacks on gas stations and whether Ukraine could face fuel shortages.

According to the Financial Times, Russian forces have already destroyed more than 200 gas stations in Ukraine’s frontline oblasts.

On Aug. 5, 2026, the Ukrainian government was asked to authorize mobile gas stations.
