Militarnyi reported on 10 October 2026 that overnight drone attacks on Russia’s Rostov Oblast damaged two ships in the Port of Azov, citing the Rostov regional governor. The governor did not name the vessels or describe the damage. The commercial port sits in the Don River delta with access to the Sea of Azov. Militarnyi noted the same night’s Ukrainian strike on the Novoshakhtinsk/Yug Rusi oil terminal in Rostov-on-Don as a separate pin.
