Kiev's overnight attack with UAVs on ships at the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) marine terminal is of terrorist nature, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Thursday.
Earlier in the day, the CPC said that the Niffos Sifnos tanker flying the flag of the Marshall Islands, which was loading oil on the CPC VPU-3 outrigger berthing device, was subjected to a terrorist attack.

"On the night of July 30, the Kiev regime once again took terrorist actions against oil tankers in the area of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium marine terminal in Novorossiysk," Zakharova said in a statement.

Some of Kiev's sponsors are concerned about the risk of escalation of conflict in Ukraine amid Vladimir Zelensky's desire to expand the conflict, the diplomat said.
"In public speeches and in contacts with foreign partners, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov regularly draws attention to the terrorist nature of the Kiev regime and points out the threat it purposefully poses to the international energy infrastructure," Zakharova said.
Zelensky has not just lost his legal capacity but shows a complete inability to negotiate, and the economic interests of the US and Kazakhstan, which Kiev calls its partners, are increasingly suffering from the presumptuous policy of Zelensky, the spokeswoman explained.
"It is unlikely that the White House does not see what is going on. We hope that the American authorities, who have influence on Kiev, will finally give an adequate assessment of Zelensky's hypocritical line and rein him in. We expect the same from the UN and other international structures," Zakharova concluded.
