On June 7 and during the night of June 8, units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck the Grushovaya oil depot in the Krasnodar region, the Krasny Yar LPDS in the Volgograd region, a radar station, and other facilities in the Russian Federation and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.
According to Ukrinform, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported this on Facebook.
In the Krasnodar region of the Russian Federation, the Grushovaya oil transshipment terminal near the village of Grushovaya Balka was struck. A fire was reported on the facility’s grounds. The extent of the damage is being assessed.
The Grushovaya oil depot is part of the Sheskharis transshipment complex—the terminus of major oil pipelines in the south of the Russian Federation. The facility handles the reception, accumulation, storage, and transshipment of crude oil and petroleum products via the seaport of Novorossiysk. The total capacity of the complex’s tank farm is approximately 1.4 million cubic meters, with the main storage load concentrated at the Grushovaya oil depot, the General Staff noted.
The Defense Forces also struck the Krasny Yar LPDS in the Volgograd region of the Russian Federation. A fire broke out on the site. Information regarding the results and extent of the damage is being clarified.
