Details: The special forces explained that one of the key elements of the port's infrastructure is its oil harbour, designed to handle tankers with a capacity of up to 10,000 tonnes and a draught of up to 10 metres. An oil depot is also located directly near the port's territory.
Makhachkala port holds strategic importance for Russian logistics. It is Russia's only ice-free, deep-water port on the Caspian Sea, operating year-round. Various types of cargo pass through it, and the port itself is a key link in the North-South international transport corridor, which provides Russia with an alternative route to Iran, India and other South Asian countries.
