A small service vessel assigned to planned maintenance operations at the Caspian Pipeline Consortium terminal in the Black Sea has been struck in an attack carried out by Ukraine, according to a person familiar with the situation.

The vessel was operating in support of routine repair activities at the offshore mooring facilities. The terminal serves as a critical maritime conduit for crude exports originating from Kazakhstan.

The strike underscores the ongoing security risks facing commercial maritime assets and marine infrastructure across the Black Sea basin during the protracted regional conflict.

Details regarding the immediate impact on the terminal's repair schedule or any broader implications for export throughput have not been disclosed.
