Attack on Novorossiysk on May 17: what is known
According to ICTV Facts sources, the attack on Novorossiysk on May 17 ended with explosions at the railway station and in the area of the oil terminal of the seaport of Novorossiysk.
In particular, while the night explosions in Novorossiysk thundered one after another, locals reported a blackout in the port where the remnants of the Russian Black Sea Fleet are based.
ICTV Fact Sources state: the attack on Novorossiysk, Tuapse and Sevastopol on May 17 is evidence that the Russians are unable to defend their main naval bases in the still occupied Crimea and on the Russian Black Sea coast.

At the height of the attack on Novorossiysk and Tuapse on May 17, the governor of the Krasnodar Territory of the Russian Federation, Veniamin Kondratyev, reported on the “suppression” only more than 10 UAVs over the territory of Novorossiysk.
