EU ambassadors approved a plan on Dec. 10, 2025, between 10:46 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. UTC to end all Russian gas imports by autumn 2027, halting LNG by end of 2026 and pipeline gas by September 2027, according to an X post by NOELreports shared in the past 29 minutes. The plan requires final approval from EU ministers and the European Parliament but is expected to pass easily despite opposition from Hungary and Slovakia, the post stated. Russian gas currently accounts for 12% of EU imports, down from 45% in 2022. In related energy developments, Ukraine's SBU reported that a Friday night attack massively damaged the Russian natural gas terminal at the port of Temryuk, with the facility burning for over three days and losing 70% of its LNG storage tanks, railcars, a fueling unit, and loading equipment, per an X post by Osinttechnical published in the reporting window. Ukrainian servicemen from the 132nd Separate Air Assault Reconnaissance Battalion engaged Russian troops near the Pokrovsk-Myrnohrad agglomeration, with one firing an AT-4 rocket launcher at a barn sheltering Russians; a Russian POW in white winter camouflage was noted, according to an X post by Archer83Able shared during the 29-minute period. The American Merops anti-aircraft drone complex gained the ability to integrate data from various radars, with each drone costing about $14,500 and recognized as a promising counter-unmanned aerial system development, as reported in an X post by mil_in_ua linking to Militarnyi during the reporting window.
