The Russian port of Ust-Luga on the Baltic Sea has halted shipments of crude oil and petroleum products following a Ukrainian drone attack on the night of March 25.
Reuters reported this, citing two sources.
A photo published by the Dnipro Osint community shows a large-scale fire at the port and, possibly, on two tankers, one of which belongs to Russia’s “shadow fleet” and is named VICTORY.

Ust-Luga is the second-largest and most modern seaport on the Baltic Sea and one of the largest in Europe.
It is located in Luga Bay of the Gulf of Finland, about 110 km from St. Petersburg and near the border with Estonia.
The port is multi-purpose, but its primary focus is energy exports. It serves as the terminal for the Baltic Pipeline System-II (BPS-II) oil pipeline.
The facility hosts major terminals operated by Transneft and Novatek.
