Destruction of compressor station in Sudzha will lead to economic crisis in the EU


The Ukrainian offensive in the Kursk region appears to have energy implications for Europe because, according to Russian media, Ukrainian troops have captured a gas station in Sudzha and its destruction will cause a huge economic crisis in EU.

Images of the city show Ukrainian troops entrenched in the city in anticipation of any Russian counterattack, which is difficult to mount due to the lack of strong forces on the ground.

Footage from Sudzha. The Ukrainian army does not spare a single building, mercilessly hits houses, kills civilians, old people, children, even pregnant women. UAVs, artillery, tanks destroy everything they see. This is not a military response, but barbaric madness.


The station is of great importance, as it is the starting point for gas supplies to the EU, which are designed to supply 30 billion cubic meters of gas per year.

Russian Z-channels report that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have taken control of the Sudzha gas metering station in the Kursk region. This station is an important border facility for transporting Russian gas to Europe. There is no official confirmation of this information yet.


The station is part of the Druzhba gas pipeline and is fed by the Urengoy gas field, passing through Ukraine to Slovakia and dividing into two directions, supplying European countries. This gas pipeline was one of the most important routes for transporting gas to the West before the war and remains one of the largest in the world.
