Oil pipeline at Russia’s Primorsk damaged in drone attack, governor says

MOSCOW, April 5 (Reuters) – A portion of an oil pipeline at Russia’s Baltic Sea port of Primorsk has been damaged in a Ukrainian drone attack, local governor Alexander Drozdenko said in a post on the Telegram messaging app on Sunday.

He said no one was injured in the attack. The pipeline was shut and the fire was safely burning out, he said.

Ukraine has stepped up attacks on Russia’s Baltic Sea ports in the past month.
