The operation was carried out by the SBU and the SDF.

On the night of August 24, long-range drones of the Security Service of Ukraine and the Special Operations Forces attacked the production facilities of Ust-Luga port in the Leningrad Region.

Preliminary information suggests that Ukrainian drones hit the gas processing complex of NOVATEK, which is Russia's largest producer of liquefied gas.

The video shows a powerful explosion followed by a huge fire. OSINT analysts report that the impact hit exactly the gas condensate/gas cryogenic fractionation unit, which is the "heart" of the complex's technological processes.

This is the second successful attack by SBU drones on Ust-Luga in 2025. The first was in early January.

"Through this terminal, Russia trades oil and gas with the help of a 'shadow fleet'." The drone sanctions from the SBU are reducing the inflow of currency Russia needs to wage war," an informed SBU source said.
