SSU Strikes Russia's Yaroslavl-3 Oil Pumping Station, Temryuk Port Gas Terminal
"The Yaroslavl-3 oil pumping station is part of the Baltic Pipeline System (BPS-1) and supplies raw materials to the nearby Slavneft-YANOS refinery, as well as to export terminals at the port of Primorsk. Following the SSU drone attack, three crude oil reservoirs caught fire. The fire covered an area of more than 5,000 square meters," the statement said.
It was also reported that strikes on the gas terminal at the port of Temryuk caused a fire at the facilities of LLC Maktren-Nafta. In particular, a gas pipeline on the pier and several buildings are burning. This facility is used for transferring liquefied gas from railcars and tank containers onto specialized gas carrier vessels.

Every disabled oil pumping station, every halted pipeline or refinery means millions of dollars that will not flow into the Kremlin's budget and will not be turned into missiles, drones, and shells. By striking Russia's energy infrastructure, Ukraine is bringing the war back to where it came from and forcing the enemy to pay a real price for its aggression," the SSU commented.
As previously reported, specialists from the SSU's Alpha Special Operations Center also struck Russia's 16th FSB Center in Krasnodar Krai, which is involved in radio-electronic intelligence operations.
