Russia's state-controlled energy giant Gazprom said Wednesday that Ukrainian forces had repeatedly attacked infrastructure linked to two Black Sea gas pipelines supplying Turkey and southeastern Europe, in what Moscow described as an attempt to disrupt exports.
Gazprom said facilities tied to the TurkStream and Blue Stream pipelines in southern Russia had been targeted 12 times over the past two weeks.
Ukrainian officials have not yet commented on the claims.
The latest incident occurred Wednesday and involved a drone attack on the Russkaya compressor station in the Krasnodar region, Gazprom said.
