Ukrainian drones hit Russian port of Tuapse for the fourth time

Emergency crews battled a blaze at the sea terminal as officials said the strike was the fourth on Tuapse in a week and caused no injuries.

  • On Friday, a fresh drone strike hit the Tuapse seaport terminal on the Black Sea, sparking a blaze but causing no injuries, local officials said. This marks the fourth attack on the port facility in the past week.
  • Kyiv has intensified long-range aerial operations in recent weeks, aiming to cripple Moscow's primary war funding source. The Krasnodar Region area has been under a state of emergency since Tuesday, when a previous industrial incident cut production.
  • Emergency crews, including 128 firefighters and 41 vehicles, deployed to tackle the situation. Workers have cleared 12,600 cubic metres of contaminated material from five coastal areas, addressing the environmental impact of the repeated occurrences.
  • Despite official claims, residents were advised by Rospotrebnadzor to avoid tap water due to elevated benzene levels. One resident commented on Wednesday on a video of Anna Popova, head of Rospotrebnadzor, saying "Everything is safe and under control!"
  • Ukraine's military also targeted energy facilities near Perm and Orenburg, situated 1,500 km from Ukraine in the Ural mountains. These coordinated assaults suggest an expanding campaign against Russian energy infrastructure deep within the country.
