Frontline situation
Ukraine’s Defense Forces struck the Ust-Luga port and oil infrastructure in Russia’s Leningrad region, targeting facilities at the Novatek terminal. The attack damaged storage tanks, triggered a large-scale fire and caused an oil spill.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has been attacking Russia’s largest oil refinery, the Omsk Oil Refinery, for more than two hours, triggering continuous explosions and a massive fire. The facility, owned by Gazprom Neft and located 2,500 km from Ukraine, has a designed processing capacity of over 21 million metric tons of oil annually.
