Transneft reports attempted attack on Druzhba oil pipeline

The pipeline operator Transneft reported an attempted “terrorist attack” on the Druzhba pipeline system, at a fueling station in the Bryansk region.

Transneft said that no one was injured in the attempted attack. The company did not provide any further details.

The Druzhba pipeline transits oil to the European market via Belarus.

In March, Transneft also reported finding explosive devices near the Bryansk fueling station on the Druzhba pipeline.
