Leningrad Region Governor Alexander Drozdenko said multiple drones struck Ust-Luga port on the Baltic coast, one of Russia's largest oil export hubs, causing a fire and wounding three workers. He said a substation at the port has gone offline and preliminary tallies show air defenses shot down 150 drones overnight; it is unclear whether oil loading operations were affected. Ust-Luga handles Russian crude and refined product exports; late-March Ukrainian strikes previously damaged port infrastructure and halted loadings from March 25 to early April, and past interruptions at Ust-Luga and nearby Primorsk prompted refiners to seek alternative export routes.
