❗️Exilenova+ satellite analysis of the August 12 Novorossiysk strike shows extensive damage at three key sites: the NKHP grain and fuel-oil terminals, Russia’s naval base and the Sheskharis oil-export terminal. Admiral Makarov and Admiral Essen were likely hit near their Kalibr launchers, while a minesweeper, patrol ship, intelligence ship and experimental vessel also appear damaged. NKHP handles around 12% of Russian grain exports, while Sheskharis suffered hits on its main tanker berths.
