As NBN reports with reference to video material published by the Russian Telegram channel BAZA, today another strike by Ukrainian drones was carried out on the oil depot in Proletarsk (Rostov region), which 300 employees of the Russian Emergencies Ministry have been unable to extinguish over the past 5 days.
According to BAZA data, a kamikaze drone of the Ukrainian Armed Forces allegedly attempted to attack the territory of the oil depot today, August 23, at about 5 am. At the same time, if we believe the Russian media, the drone was shot down, and no one was hurt as a result of the falling debris.
It is also known that at the current moment, Russian rescuers are unable to even localize the fire: there is a high risk of the fire spreading to kerosene tanks, which threatens even more large-scale consequences.
Earlier, our information portal wrote that NASA photographs showed a large-scale fire at the Marinovka airfield after a UAV strike.
