As a reminder, Sheskharis is a large marine complex for receiving, storing, and shipping oil and oil products onto tankers. It plays an important role in the operation of the Novorossiysk seaport and export logistics for the south of the Russian Federation, and is also used to supply Russian military groups involved in the war against Ukraine. In November 2025, the facility was already damaged as a result of an attack.
