The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed that on January 11, the Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to attack the Russian gas measuring station in the Krasnodar Territory, from which the Turkish Stream begins — the only remaining pipeline route for Russian gas supplies to Europe.
“On January 11, 2025, the Kiev regime, in order to stop gas supplies to European countries, attempted an attack using nine aircraft-type UAVs on the infrastructure of the Russian compressor station in the village of Gai-Kodzor (Krasnodar Territory), which supplies gas via the Turkish Stream pipeline,” the Defense Ministry said.
The ministry noted that during the repulse of the raid by air defense units, all UAVs were shot down.
“There are no casualties among the service personnel of the compressor station and there is no destruction. As a result of the fall of fragments of one UAV, the building and equipment of the gas measuring station on the territory of the Russian CS received minor damage,” the Defense Ministry explained.
The consequences of falling fragments were promptly eliminated by the emergency response crews of Gazprom PJSC, the equipment was restored, the department added. According to him, the compressor station supplies gas to the Turkish Stream pipeline in normal mode: “No malfunctions have been allowed.”
Gazprom does not comment on the situation. At the same time, according to the ENTSOG platform, deliveries via the European line of the Turkish Stream have not changed. On January 11, 47 million cubic meters were delivered to Europe using it. Gas is supplied to Serbia, Greece, North Macedonia and Hungary. The total capacity of the Black Sea gas pipeline to Turkey and Europe is about 32 billion cubic meters per year. After the Ukrainian transit was stopped, the route became the only one for Gazprom’s exports to Europe.
