On the night of August 24, the Security Service of Ukraine and the Special Operations Forces used long-range drones to strike an infrastructure facility on the territory of the Russian sea terminal “Ust-Luga” in the Leningrad Region.
This was announced by the press service of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It is previously known that the drones managed to hit a gas condensate fractionation and transshipment facility. It is noted that the facility’s capacity is up to 6.9 million tons of raw materials per year.
The General Staff emphasized that the Ust-Luga terminal is an important logistics hub for the Russian Federation in the Baltic Sea. The Kremlin actively uses it to export energy resources with the involvement of a “shadow fleet” to circumvent international sanctions.
In addition, units of the Defense Forces carried out fire damage to a number of logistics facilities in the Belgorod and Voronezh regions. The corresponding facilities ensure the functioning and combat supply of the military units of the occupiers.
The results of the lesions are currently being clarified.
As a reminder, on January 4, 2025 , drones attacked the Russian Federation’s second-largest commercial sea port after Novorossiysk , Ust-Luga, in the Leningrad Region.
By the way, on Saturday, August 23, drones attacked the Leningrad Region , as a result of which Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg temporarily ceased operations.
