An overnight Ukrainian drone strike struck Russia's Andreapol oil pumping station, a crucial component of the export route via the Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga. This attack resulted in an oil product leak and subsequent fire, according to information from the Security Service of Ukraine on Wednesday.
The offensive also targeted a Russian missile storage facility located in the Tver region, triggering a series of explosions, the same source reported. However, these details have not yet been independently verified by Reuters.
As tensions persist between the two nations, these developments mark a significant escalation, potentially impacting both the regional security climate and energy export dynamics.
