Russia’s key oil port explodes in fireball after Ukrainian ‘cruise missile attack’

Fri, November 14, 2025 at 4:50 AM PST

Ukraine attacked one of Russia’s largest oil terminals overnight, sparking a massive fire that has shut down the facility.

Blasts rocked the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk as part of Ukraine’s ongoing efforts to weaken Russia’s ability to finance its war machine by curtailing its energy revenue.

The strike came as Moscow pummelled nearly “every district” of Kyiv with drones and missiles on Friday, killing at least four people.

Reports suggest Ukraine used its own Neptune long-range cruise missiles to take out the advanced air defence systems surrounding the port, clearing the way for its drones to target the oil infrastructure.

Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed “Long Neptune” missiles were “successfully” used in overnight attacks on Russian territory, but did not confirm where.

Ukraine has stepped up its long-range strikes against Russian energy infrastructure since August, attacking oil refineries, pipelines and sea terminals with increasing vigour.

“This is our entirely just response to Russia’s ongoing terror,” Mr Zelensky wrote on X on Friday. “Ukrainian missiles are delivering increasingly significant and precise results virtually every month.”

The upgraded Neptune missile has a range of 620 miles, representing a major leap in Kyiv’s domestic long-range missile production to reduce its dependence on the slow delivery of Western equivalents.

Russian authorities reported that the oil depot and a civilian ship were hit, and several coastal facilities damaged.

Following the attack, the port halted operations and global oil prices jumped 2 per cent, industry sources told Reuters.

The Sheskharis oil complex serves as the endpoint of pipelines run by Russia’s state-run Transneft, which operates the world’s largest oil pipeline network.

Footage, taken by local residents, showed a huge mushroom cloud explosion above the oil hub, turning the night sky red.

“Novorossiysk suffered the most,” said Veniamin Kondratyev, the governor of the Krasnodar region, on social media.

“Overnight, more than 170 people and 50 pieces of equipment dealt with the aftermath of the attack, quickly extinguishing fires and assisting residents.”

Ukrainian drones also attacked the Saratov oil refinery, deep inside Russia, marking the sixth time Kyiv has targeted the facility since the summer and the second time this week.

The refinery is a key supplier of gasoline and diesel to western Russia, with a daily capacity of 140,000 barrels.

The Trump administration has provided intelligence to help Ukraine target oil facilities as part of an attempt to push the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, towards negotiations, while Kyiv is largely now relying on its own domestically made long-range weapons for the attacks.

The campaign has succeeded in reducing Russian oil refining by more than 20 per cent, Ukrainian officials say, sparking fuel shortages across the country and partial bans on diesel and petrol exports.

Kyiv is reported to have hit more than 50 per cent of Russia’s 38 major refineries more than once.

Meanwhile, on Friday, at least four people were killed in the Ukrainian capital, and 27 injured in a large-scale combined attack.

Fifteen people were admitted to hospital, including a pregnant woman and two children, after explosions were heard across the city, as missiles and drones struck critical infrastructure and residential buildings.

Emergency services rescued more than 40 people from fires and damaged buildings in eight of Kyiv’s 10 districts. Mayor Vitali Klitschko described the strikes as a “massive enemy attack”.

Pictures showed the flames and residents gathering in rubble-strewn streets outside apartment buildings.

“The Russians are hitting residential buildings. There are a great many damaged multi-storey apartment buildings, in practically every district,” Tymur Tkachenko, the head of Kyiv’s military administration, wrote on Telegram.

The strikes left parts of the city without heating and facing warnings of possible power and water outages.

Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian president, said Russia launched about 430 drones and 18 missiles in the overnight attacks. “This was a deliberately calculated attack aimed at causing maximum harm to people and civilian infrastructure,” he wrote on X.

Experts have said Russia’s latest strikes on energy infrastructure were putting Ukraine at risk of heating outages as winter settled in. It is seen as a deliberate strategy to try to break the population’s morale after nearly four years of war.
