A major Ukrainian drone strike hit Russia’s Ust-Luga port, sparking a fire at the NOVATEK gas-condensate plant.

Ust-Luga is one of Russia’s key western export hubs for oil products and condensate on the Baltic, used to move large volumes to foreign markets.

Ust-Luga handles around 700,000 barrels per day of oil exports and exported 32.9 million metric tons of oil products last year.
