MOSCOW, Aug 28 (Reuters) - Russia’s Ust-Luga oil export terminal will operate at around 350,000 barrels per day in September, or about half its usual capacity, following damage to pipeline infrastructure from Ukrainian drone attacks, two industry sources told Reuters.

The disruption shows how recent Ukrainian strikes targeting key energy facilities are complicating Russian exports and may lead to supply disruptions.
