Putin convenes emergency meeting as fuel crisis deepens and drone strikes intensify

Putin's 28 June emergency session lands as Ukrainian drone strikes knock a meaningful share of Russian refining capacity offline and gasoline prices spike across southern federal districts. The meeting buys time. It does not rebuild a hydrocracker.

Desk note: Monexus has framed this story on the established premise that Ukraine is the invaded party, and that strikes on Russian energy infrastructure serving the war effort are a legitimate defensive response. Russian state-aligned sources are cited for the specific claims they carry from the Russian presidency, with explicit attribution; Western wire-service verification of refinery throughput and strike-damage specifics is not yet available in this thread, and this article flags the gap rather than papering over it.
