For reference
The Sheskharis terminal is located in Novorossiysk—a key export hub through which approximately 700,000 barrels of oil per day were previously shipped.
The port in Novorossiysk last came under a massive drone attack in early April. A few days later, it became known that it had partially resumed oil exports.
As a reminder
In early May, Ukraine applied "sanctions" against the Russian shadow oil fleet – two such vessels were hit in the waters at the entrance to the port of Novorossiysk.
