Reuters, citing the same reporting, said disruptions affected as much as 20% of CPC oil loadings in July. That distinction is operationally important because Novorossiysk handles both Russian oil and crude transported through the CPC from Kazakhstan. Ukraine must therefore distinguish between sanctioned Russian-linked shipping and vessels carrying non-Russian Kazakh crude. The arrangement also leaves Ukraine's campaign against Russian energy infrastructure intact. The Financial Times reported that Kyiv continues attacking Russian energy and military targets despite the pause around CPC-linked shipping.
