Drones of the Alpha Special Operations Center of the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU), jointly with other components of the Defense Forces, help to creare explosions at military and oil facilities of the port of Novorossiysk that are involved in the war against Ukraine.

A source in the SSU stated this to Ukrinform.

According to preliminary data, SSU drones struck: military ships, the 30N6E2 guidance radar of the S-300 PMU-2 Favorit system, the Pantsir-S2 anti-aircraft missile and gun system, six out of seven oil loading berths at the Sheskharis oil terminal.

As the source stated, this terminal is one of the largest oil transshipment complexes in southern Russia and supplies fuel to Russian forces fighting in Ukraine.

"The SSU continues its systematic work to weaken the enemy's military, financial, and logistical potential. Each such special operation directly affects Russia's ability to conduct combat operations and receive petrodollar revenues into its budget. The season of spring explosions has begun," the source emphasized.

As reported earlier, Telegram channels wrote that on the night of March 2, drones attacked Novorossiysk, causing a fire at the Russian Sheskharis oil terminal on the Black Sea.
