At least 30% of oil tanks in the port of Ust-Luga have been affected, — Center for Countering Disinformation

After a series of strikes on the Baltic port of Ust-Luga, at least 30% of oil tanks were damaged.

At least 30% of oil tanks in the Russian port of Ust-Luga in the Leningrad region were damaged as a result of the latest attacks. This was reported by Andrey Kovalenko, head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council.

In March, Ust-Luga was repeatedly attacked by drones. Against the background of these strikes, loading at the port practically stopped at the end of the month.

In early April, the Russians tried to partially restore the terminal. In particular, on April 4, the Aframax-class vessel Jewel began loading oil in Ust-Luga. As of the morning of April 6, the tanker was loaded, although it did not yet have a clear destination.

However, on the night of April 7, Ust-Luga again came under attack by drones. The extent of damage to enemy terminals is currently being clarified.
