The port is one of the largest in the Black Sea region, handling shipments of oil, gas, and ammonia. The attack caused significant infrastructure damage at the berths and to several storage tanks containing vacuum gas oil and fuel oil, impacting the civilian environment and affected communities. Petroleum products leaked and ignited, with the fire spreading across an area of about 7,000 m², complicating ongoing field operations and recovery efforts. Estimated losses are approximately $50 million USD, highlighting the conflict impact on cities and critical field infrastructure in the region.
