> Three of Russia’s six largest diesel-producing refineries sharply reduced or halted output in September after Ukrainian drone strikes damaged their facilities, Reuters reported. Kinef has stopped completely, while the Volgograd refinery and NORSI are operating at about a quarter of capacity. The six plants produce roughly half of Russia’s diesel, by Reuters’ estimate.
