Nov 2 (Reuters) - The Black Sea port facilities of

Tuapse, home to a major Russian oil terminal, were damaged and

set ablaze overnight as a result of a Ukrainian drone attack,

regional authorities said on Sunday.

"An attack by UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) is being

repelled in Tuapse," the administration of the Krasnodar region

where Tuapse is located, said on the Telegram messaging app.

"Falling drones have caused damage to port infrastructure

and sparked a fire. There have been no reports of casualties."

It was not immediately clear what port infrastructure was

damaged.

The port is home to the Tuapse oil terminal and the

Rosneft-controlled Tuapse oil refinery, both of which have been

targeted by Ukrainian drones several times this year.

Kyiv has intensified strikes on Russian refineries, depots

and pipelines to strain fuel supplies, disrupt military

logistics and raise wartime costs, a campaign it says is

retaliation for Russian attacks on the Ukrainian power grid.

The Krasnodar administration said as a result of falling

drone debris, an apartment building was damaged in the village

of Sosnovyi, just outside Tuapse. There were no injuries

reported, it added.
