On the night between November 10 and 11, Russia was subjected to a large-scale attack by Ukrainian drones.
The main blow fell on the Leningrad region, where the port of Ust-Luga, one of the largest Russian centers for the export of oil, petroleum products and other cargo in the Baltic region, was attacked.
According to the latest figures from Governor Alexander Drozdenko, about 150 drones were shot down over the area. Initially 92 devices were reported, then 141 devices.
What is known about the consequences:
- Ost-Luga. A fire broke out in the port area. According to the governor, three workers were injured.
- Energy infrastructure. As a result of the attack, the substation went out. The extent of the damage and recovery times are determined.
- Leningrad region. The massive attack affected the area where large oil refining and export factories are located.
- Neighboring countries. Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia have issued warnings about the threat of drones. Finland has temporarily restricted the use of some of its air and sea space.
The Baltic states declared back in the spring of 2026 that they would not allow Ukrainian drones to use their airspace to attack Russia. At the same time, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia proposed different ways to prevent such cases.
On May 13, Lithuanian President Gitan Nausėda stated that the country's territory and airspace cannot be used for military operations by third countries against neighbors. He called a possible violation of this principle a violation of Lithuania's sovereignty.
On June 16, Latvia's Defense Minister, Raivis Melanis, directly stated that UAVs that violated the airspace would be shot down regardless of their origin. According to him, any necessary means can be used to protect the population.
But drones continue to fly through the Baltic states.
