The terminal is close to the Estonian border but it is unclear how the export of the gas, which is important for the Baltics during the coldest days of the year, will be affected.
“No injuries as a result of a fire at Novatek's terminal in the port of Ust-Luga. Personnel were evacuated,” regional governor Aleksandr Drozdenko wrote on the messaging app Telegram early Sunday.
Ukraine's security service told several Ukrainian media that their drones were behind the attack.
