A number of suburban summer camps in Saratov, Russia, will not be operating this summer due to security risks.
This was announced by the city’s mayor, Igor Molchanov.
This concerns camps in the Kumisnaya Polyana area—a popular recreational zone where more than ten children’s facilities are located.
According to the mayor, the decision was made after consultations with law enforcement agencies to “eliminate any risks.”
Instead, children are being offered an alternative in the form of city camps attached to schools.
The restrictions were introduced amid regular strikes on targets in the Saratov region, including a local oil refinery.
In the Russian city of Tuapse in the Krasnodar Krai, explosions were heard on the night of April 16 during a drone attack. The strikes may have hit the tanks of the Tuapse oil refinery, which belongs to Rosneft.
As a reminder, on the morning of April 15, Ukrainian “Lyuty” strike drones attacked a petrochemical plant in the city of Sterlitamak, located in the Republic of Bashkortostan, Russian Federation.
