Overview
- Local officials confirmed late Saturday that a drone strike hit the Tamanneftegaz terminal at the Temryuk port in Krasnodar, sparking at least two fires, killing one civilian and wounding three.
- Regional authorities said drone debris ignited the blazes and that about 96 firefighters and more than 30 fire vehicles were deployed to contain the damage.
- Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) acknowledged that one recent operation targeted the Tamanneftegaz complex and said it will continue systematic strikes on Russian energy infrastructure to cut war funding.
- The Russian Ministry of Defense reported intercepting and destroying 177 fixed‑wing drones over 13 Russian regions and Crimea during the same night, and regional governors reported separate incidents in Volgograd area towns.
- Tamanneftegaz is a major liquefied gas transfer and storage hub in southern Russia, so damage there can hit local economies and logistics and may lead to sharper military and security responses from Moscow.
