flew over 2,500 km to the Urals
Omsk is not in the Urals. The Omsk refinery is in Siberia, so this misstates the location of the target region.
Full reasoning
The post is referring to the strike on the Omsk refinery. But Omsk is not in the Ural region.
An official Omsk Region investment portal says the region is located on the West Siberian plain. Encyclopedia.com likewise describes Omsk as a city in western / southwestern Siberia. Reuters' reporting on the July 6, 2026 strike also described the Omsk refinery as "deep in Siberia."
So while the long-range distance claim is broadly consistent with reporting, the phrase "to the Urals" mislocates Omsk geographically. The target was in Siberia, not the Urals.
