Drone attack partially stops Druzhba pipeline: Moscow vows to resume oil supplies to Hungary soon

A Ukrainian drone attacked a Druzhba oil pipeline metering station on the night of 10-11 March, causing a temporary stop in oil supplies to Hungary. Source: Hungary's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto Quote from Szijjarto: "In fact, due to a nighttime drone attack, oil transport through the Druzhba pipeline towards Hungary had to be temporarily stopped."

Details: Szijjarto stated that he had discussed the situation with a deputy Russian energy minister, who assured him that repairs were underway and supplies would resume soon.

The Hungarian foreign minister criticised the attacks on energy infrastructure: "We've stayed out of this war so far and we want to stay out of it. The energy supply to Hungary is a matter of sovereignty and we expect everyone to respect that." He also stated that the European Commission had guaranteed supply security but that this promise had been broken.
