According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, a Ukrainian drone was intercepted approximately seven kilometers from the Kropotkinskaya oil pumping station, part of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) in Russia's Krasnodar Krai.
Debris from the drone reportedly fell near the Kavkazskaya railway station, Orda reports.
The Kropotkinskaya station has been targeted previously; on February 17, Ukrainian drones attacked the facility, causing damage and temporarily halting operations for repairs.
Another attack occurred on March 19, when Ukrainian drones struck the Kavkazskaya oil transshipment point in Krasnodar Krai, damaging infrastructure and igniting a fire that continued for several days.
These incidents occurred after a March 18 agreement between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin to halt strikes on energy infrastructure for 30 days.
Currently, Russian delegates are engaged in negotiations with U.S. representatives in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, reports have surfaced that U.S. President Donald Trump is growing increasingly frustrated with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine aerial strikes. Reportedly, despite becoming "impatient," he is committed to brokering a ceasefire.
