ERR footage shows Ust-Luga attack from eastern Estonia

ERR correspondent Dmitri Fedotkin filmed the attack on Russia’s Ust-Luga port from Narva, Sillamäe and Sinimäed in Ida-Viru County overnight, capturing how it was visible from Estonia.

The Estonian Defence Forces warned of a possible air threat in six counties at 3:12 a.m. on Wednesday. The alert was later extended to West and East Viru counties, and NATO fighter jets took off. The warning was lifted across Estonia at 6:33 a.m.

Ukraine attacked Ust-Luga with drones overnight, sparking a large fire at the port. Ust-Luga is one of Russia’s main ports for transporting Russian crude oil using its shadow fleet, and is about 36 kilometres from the Estonian border in a straight line.
