Ukraine on Wednesday resumed oil transit from Russia to some European countries through the Druzhba pipeline, the Interfax-Ukraine news agency reported.
Oil transit via the pipeline had been suspended since late January after a Russian strike damaged the Ukrainian section of the route, halting Russian oil deliveries to Hungary and Slovakia.
Pumping began at 12:35 p.m. local time (0935 GMT), an industry source said on condition of anonymity.
On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the repair of the pipeline has been completed.
