An overnight drone attack sparked a fire at an oil depot in Novorossiysk, Russia’s key Black Sea oil port, regional emergency services said early Saturday.
Falling drone debris ignited the blaze, and authorities said debris also struck the port’s oil terminal without giving further details on damage or operations.
The hit adds to a series of recent attacks on Russian energy infrastructure, extending pressure to one of the country’s most important export hubs on the Black Sea.
