A threat of attack from the sea has been declared in Tuapse.

The head of the Tuapse District warned residents of the threat of attack by unmanned boats.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," a fire broke out at the Tuapse sea terminal on May 1 after a drone attack. It was extinguished on May 2.

Tuapse District Head Sergei Boyko announced the threat of an attack on his Telegram channel at 8:00 a.m. Moscow time.

"Attention! Threat from unmanned boats! Being on the seashore and nearby is dangerous!" he wrote. The ability to leave comments under official publications has been disabled.

As of 8:55 a.m. Moscow time, Boyko had no information about the threat being cancelled or about the attack taking place.

As a reminder, on September 24, 2025, two people were killed and 14 others were injured after drones and unmanned boats attacked Novorossiysk and Tuapse. That day, people in Novorossiysk, Tuapse, Gelendzhik, and Sochi were ordered to leave the beaches, but in Sochi, some vacationers returned to the sea. Social media users called this behavior reckless.

Civilians in the coastal areas of Kuban resorts risk becoming accidental victims in attacks, so the evacuation of vacationers from the beaches was a justified measure, experts interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot" confirmed.

In September 2025, the Krasnodar Territory banned the dissemination of information about drone attacks and their consequences, as well as the filming of air defense operations, military facilities, and critical infrastructure. In December 2025, Kuban authorities introduced fines for filming aerial attacks and air defense operations. The "Caucasian Knot" published a corresponding bill of the regional legislative assembly.
