Ukraine launched a Wave of Drone Attacks on Targets across Russia on 5/3/2026, Hitting the Baltic Sea Port of Primorsk and setting it on Fire, and Striking a Number of Vessels, as it steps up Attacks on Energy Infrastructure and other Targets.
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy commented on the latest Wave of Strikes, which also Hit One Oil Tanker in the Port, a Karakurt-class Missile Ship, and a Patrol Boat, saying Significant Damage had been caused to the Infrastructure of the Oil Terminal Port.
In a Post on Telegram, Zelenskiy said Ukraine had struck the Karakurt-Class Missile Ship, a Patrol Boat, and an Oil Tanker in the Baltic Sea, adding that "each such result further limits Russia’s war potential".
Primorsk, One of Russia's Largest Export Gateways, has Capacity to handle 1 Million Barrels per Day of Oil Supply. It has been Hit Multiple Times in Recent Months, as U.S. Brokered Talks to End the Ukraine War have Stalled.
Zelenskiy Earlier on 5/3/2026 said Ukrainian Forces also Struck Two Shadow Fleet Tankers in Waters at the Entrance to the Russian Black Sea Port of Novorossiysk. "These tankers had been actively used to transport oil – not anymore," Zelenskiy said on Telegram. "Ukraine's long-range capabilities will continue to be developed comprehensively – at sea, in the air, and on land."
Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Global Oil Prices may Rise further, if Ukraine continues to Hit Russia's Oil infrastructure.
“If additional volumes of our oil are dropped from the market, prices will rise further from current levels, which are already above $120 a barrel," Peskov said. "That would mean that even with lower export volumes, our companies would earn more money and the state would receive more revenue.”
Other Russian Regions also Reported Drone Attacks on 5/2/2026 and 5/3/2026.
