Ivan Yakovina observes that Russian air defense (PVO) in the Novorossiysk area has significantly deteriorated, with few anti-aircraft missiles visible and chaotic machine gun fire replacing them.

Ivan Yakovina predicts that the Russian oil terminal in Novorossiysk will likely not operate for the next few weeks or even months, halting fuel loading onto tankers.

The Russian Telegram channel 'Belarusian Silovik' reported that the attack on Novorossiysk lasted over 4 hours and involved dozens of Ukrainian drones, causing the few anti-aircraft missile systems guarding the port to run out of missiles.
