Drone Attack Hits Major Russian Oil Port

A targeted drone strike ignited a blaze at Russia’s vital Ust-Luga Baltic oil export terminal, according to Leningrad regional Governor Aleksandr Drozdenko.

Emergency crews were deployed immediately to combat the flames at the strategic western hub, which has faced recurrent aerial assaults amid the ongoing conflict.

Air defence units intercepted 146 drones overnight across the Leningrad region, while security disruptions prompted the cancellation or delay of roughly 18 flights at Saint Petersburg’s Pulkovo Airport.

The strike underscores Ukraine’s sustained strategic campaign against Russian energy infrastructure, designed to cripple Kremlin war financing.

Kyiv continues targeting oil hubs despite ongoing United States-mediated diplomatic negotiations in Abu Dhabi aimed at resolving Europe’s largest military conflict since World War II.

Meanwhile, Russian bombardments continue pounding Ukrainian power grids, plunging vulnerable residents into darkness as freezing winter temperatures set in across the country.
