Port in Novorossiysk attacked by naval drones: oil shipment stopped, local authorities and publics

In the russian federation, naval drones attacked the port in Novorossiysk.

Naval drones attacked the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) Marine Terminal in Novorossiysk, completely disabling the mooring device.

As a result, oil shipments were temporarily suspended, russian media reported.

According to the company, on the morning of November 29, unmanned boats caused significant damage to the remote mooring device, which is beyond repair.

"By order of the captain of the Novorossiysk seaport, cargo operations and other work were suspended, tankers were taken outside the CPC water area. There were no casualties among CPC personnel or contractors," the company noted.

It is previously known that at the time of the attack, emergency protection systems blocked the relevant pipelines, so oil did not enter the Black Sea.

The CPC added that further operation of VPU-2 is impossible, and shipments at the terminal will be resumed in accordance with established rules after the elimination of UAV threats.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, a series of loud explosions were recorded in the Krasnodar Krai of russia on the night of November 29. The region came under attack by strike drones.
