What happened

Ukraine’s Armed Forces StratCom said Ukrainian forces struck the Yug Rusy oil-loading terminal in Bataysk during a wider overnight operation against Russian fuel logistics and that a fire was recorded at the facility. The terminal was described as handling petroleum products for export and supporting Russian military fuel supply in the southern theater. Associated Press separately reported that Ukraine said it hit an oil-loading terminal in the Rostov region, but the reviewed Russian official account did not confirm this facility’s damage. The marker is approximate and the event remains reported rather than documented.

When cited sources give different casualty, damage or spill figures for this event, they’re reported side by side above rather than merged into one number. See how confidence levels work.
