Ukrainian drone strike hits Tuapse oil export terminal, damages foreign vessels

The port is home to the Tuapse Black Sea oil terminal and a Rosneft-controlled oil refinery, which Ukraine has targeted with several drone strikes this year.

It was not immediately known if the terminal was operating after the attack, which the administration said damaged its buildings and other infrastructure.

The export-oriented Tuapse plant, which has a processing capacity of 240,000 barrels of oil per day (bpd), produces naphtha, fuel oil, vacuum gasoil and high-sulphur diesel.
