* Tuapse hit again by Ukrainian drones

* Fire at the port, one killed - Russian officials

* Attack came just hours after previous fire was

extinguished

(Adds quote, details; paragraphs 1-6)

MOSCOW, April 20 (Reuters) - A major Ukrainian drone

attack on Russia's Black Sea port of Tuapse sparked a fire and

killed at least one person, Russian officials said on Monday,

just hours after a blaze was doused in the wake of a similar

attack on April 16.

One of Russia's major southern ports, Tuapse is an oil

product export hub that also handles dry bulk cargo, such as

coal and fertiliser. In addition, it is home to a major oil

refinery of the same name owned by Rosneft.

"Tuapse was subjected to another massive drone attack,"

Veniamin Kondratiev, governor of the Krasnodar region said on

messaging app Telegram. "A fire occurred at the seaport."

Kondratiev said one man was killed at the port and another

injured, while debris from drones damaged several city

buildings, ranging from a kindergarten and primary school to a

church and residential apartment block.

Russia's defence ministry said 112 Ukrainian drones were

destroyed overnight.
