This was reported by the Russian publication "Izvestia" with reference to the statement of the local authorities, as well as informed by the Reuters agency. According to the Russians, the crew of the tanker on which the fire broke out was not injured, as they managed to evacuate it in time. "The deck superstructure was damaged. A fire broke out on the ship. The buildings and infrastructure of the terminal were damaged," the message says.
Meanwhile, OSINT channels recorded at least 3 sources of ignition in the port in Tuapse. This is evidenced in particular by photographs and videos taken by eyewitnesses from the scene of the events. "At least 3 sources of fire were recorded on the footage of eyewitnesses. Two of them are at the deep-water berthing complex of RN-Morskoy Terminal Tuapse LLC, and one more is at the oil loading pier in the area of the Southern Pier," analysts believe.
Analysts also suggest that Tuapse allegedly has another source of ignition due to the drone attack. It is likely that it was recorded on the dry cargo bulking pier in the northwestern part of the bay, but there is currently no reliable data to confirm this fact. The OSINT channel "KyberBoroshno" also suggests that one of the strikes probably hit an oil-fuel pier. We will remind, before that, the network reported about explosions and a fire in Tuapse, Krasnodar Territory of the Russian Federation.
