As a result of the Russian attack on September 10, part of the “Oleina” Dnipro Oil Extraction Plant in Dnipro was damaged. The plant, which is part of Bunge Ukraine, has suspended operations.
This was reported by NV, citing Bunge’s press office in Ukraine.
The company noted that none of the plant’s employees were injured, but experts are currently assessing the consequences of the attack and monitoring the situation.
We will continue to monitor the situation and assess how it develops

According to the Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration, Russian troops struck Dnipro on the morning of September 10. The attack damaged a food processing plant and caused a fire. Two people were killed, and five others were injured, including a child.
According to the Regional State Administration, a second strike was later launched against the same facility. The mayor of Dnipro confirmed that the facility in question is the “Oleina” plant.
The whole city can see that it’s Oleina. A facility that has already been shelled multiple times

Andriy Sibiga commented on the strike against the civilian plant
According to him, the facility is owned by the American agribusiness giant Bunge.
This is no accident, but part of Moscow’s systematic terrorist campaign against American businesses and economic interests. This happened just a few weeks after an attack on another U.S.-owned company in the Sumy region

The minister stated that these strikes underscore the importance of increasing pressure on the Russian regime and the need to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense.
As a reminder, a fire broke out at an industrial facility in the Kyiv region as a result of a Russian attack—a drone struck the Coca-Cola Beverages Ukraine plant. According to President Zelenskyy, this should serve as a clear signal to the United States.
