The Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) on the night of June 8 massively attacked Novorossiysk with drones, the operational headquarters of the Krasnodar region said.

Sheskharis was previously attacked in May, April and early March. In May, the tank farm was hit.

This station pumps up to 62.6 million tons of oil a year for delivery to the port of Novorossiysk.
The AFU has stepped up strikes on Russian oil infrastructure over the past month. The Ukrainian army launched 28 strikes on it in May, of which 15 hit refineries, seven hit oil pipelines and six hit ports, Bloomberg calculated. The total number of attacks broke the previous record, which was set in December 2025, when 26 oil facilities were hit.
