Tensions Flare with Ukrainian Drone Attack on Russia's Black Sea Port

A Ukrainian drone attack damaged Russia's Black Sea port in Taman, affecting its oil storage and terminals. Two people were injured, and over 100 workers managed the resulting fires. The attack marks a resurgence in tensions with strategic energy targets amid ongoing regional conflict.

Taman, Russia's Black Sea port known for handling commodities such as oil products and grain, has been targeted by a Ukrainian drone strike, announced the governor of the Krasnodar region on Sunday.

The attack resulted in injuries to two people and inflicted damage on an oil storage tank and associated infrastructure. Crews consisting of over 100 workers have been deployed to control multiple fires at the site.

This incident is part of renewed Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy facilities after the lapse of a U.S.-brokered moratorium on such attacks, escalating the long-standing tensions between the two nations.
