Mykolaiv Oblast Military Administration said Russian forces attacked a cargo terminal building in Mykolaiv with a Shahed-type drone on the morning of 12 October 2026, with no dead or injured. SESU said Russian forces had struck this cargo terminal before; a fire broke out and rescuers extinguished the burning of a 500 m² unloading complex once the security situation allowed, Suspilne Mykolaiv reported. Distinct from the 11 October Shahed attack on port infrastructure that damaged a cargo terminal and a warehouse (evt_881ce0a2): this is a new strike reported for the morning of 12 October.
