NASA’s Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) shows multiple fires burning at and directly off the coast of the Russian commercial seaport of Ust-Luga in the Leningrad Oblast, following tonight’s drone attack by Ukraine.
Assessment
NASA's FIRMS data confirms fires at and near the Ust-Luga seaport in Leningrad Oblast after a reported Ukrainian drone attack. This is a major commercial port, so the fires could disrupt Russian energy exports and logistics. Watch for official Russian statements on damage and any impact on Baltic Sea shipping routes.
