Russia complains of UAV attack on Rostov region as AFU hits oil depot. Video

The aggressor country of Russia has once again complained about a UAV attack. This time, the explosions were heard in the city of Azov in the Rostov region, where an oil depot was hit.

The information was confirmed by the governor of the Rostov region, Vasily Golubev. According to him, the drones allegedly attacked tanks with oil products.

The occupiers' representative traditionally blamed the Ukrainian Defense Forces for the attack. Photos and videos from the scene of the attack on the Azov oil depot were posted online, showing a massive fire.

According to Golubev, the preliminary data shows that there are no casualties. Emergency services are working at the scene.

Russian propaganda outlets reported that locals heard five explosions before the fire broke out.

Later, a video of a UAV hitting oil tanks in Russia's Azov was posted online.

The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations reported that the area of the fire was 5,000 square meters. It was extinguished by more than 70 people using a fire train and other equipment.

As a reminder, in April 2024, a pipeline was blown up in Azov, which was used to pump oil products from a local oil depot to tankers in the port area of the Azov seaport.

This caused problems for the occupiers in terms of oil transportation. The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine emphasized that the facility was used by the aggressor state to support the genocidal war against Ukraine.
