Volodymyr Zelensky says Russia has permission to sell oil products and Kyiv heard strikes

Situation Overview

On 10 October 2026, Volodymyr Zelensky said Kyiv heard the attack best, and that some of the missiles were shot down. The posts link the reported missile attack to a claimed permission for Russia to sell oil products, presenting it as a factor behind the strike and as part of Russia’s intentions. Zelensky’s statement ties the timing of the attack to the alleged ability to earn more from exports. No additional economic or market effects were reported in the cluster beyond the claim that additional export revenue would be spent on continuing the war and attacks on infrastructure.
