17% of world oil exports passed through the affected terminal in the city of Nikolaev.



This was reported on Facebook by Dmitry Pletenchuk, press officer of the Mykolaiv OVA.

He reported:

For the second time Russian Nazis hit the oil tanks of one of Ukraine's leading sunflower oil exporters. The enemy continues its policy of aggression against the whole world, striking similar blows against the civilian infrastructure of the country's agrarian sector of the economy.

According to Pletenchuk, 17% of world exports of these products passed exactly through the terminal in the city of Mykolaiv.

This enterprise suffered the second damage. Now the occupants have hit it with kamikaze drones. Before that a cruise missile flew here.

The oil tanks were damaged. The liquid has leaked onto the streets of the city.

Local media Novosti-N reports that a drone attack caused damage to two reservoirs with a capacity of seven and a half thousand tons each at a factory in the Zavodsky district. The liquid is leaking down the street, flowing into the city sewage system, and deep puddles have formed on the road.

Locals are also afraid of a fire breaking out. After all, any spark could cause the oil to burst into flames.
