A fire at a Russian oil depot injured one person and destroyed fuel tanks
A large-scale fire broke out at a petroleum products storage facility in the village of Kandry, Tuimazy District, Republic of Bashkortostan, resulting in one casualty.
The emergency dispatch was received by the Tuimazy Fire Department late in the evening on May 25 from a dispatcher at the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations’ regional office in Bashkortostan.
To extinguish the intense blaze, rescue workers had to deploy a special fire train.
A man born in 1974 sustained injuries as a result of the incident, but he refused hospitalization.
Units of the fire service of the Republic of Bashkortostan’s State Committee for Emergency Situations and firefighters from the Ministry of Emergency Situations promptly arrived at the scene. Specialists are currently determining the exact causes and circumstances of the fire.
Journalists have identified the company that owns the affected industrial facility in the Tuimazinsky District. It is the oil depot of the company “IntekHim.”
The company’s official website states that “IntekHim” supplies “more than 100 types of products throughout the Russian Federation and CIS countries” and ships “at least 500 tons of various products” daily.
In Novorossiysk, an oil depot and a terminal are on fire following a drone attack
The Zaporizhzhia region has endured one of the most intense attacks in recent times, as Russian troops launched hundreds of strikes on dozens of settlements. One man was killed and two others were wounded as a result of the shelling. Both frontline communities and areas deeper within the region came under fire.
Russian drones attacked two districts of the Dnipropetrovsk region simultaneously, damaging a high-rise building, administrative buildings, and utility structures. Despite the strikes, there were no casualties. Air defense forces destroyed some of the enemy drones in the sky over the region during the night.
