In St. Petersburg, a warehouse at a major logistics center is on fire. Arson is being considered as one of the possible causes.

3. Holy Moly, thats a big one.

4. What were they storing there, oily rags? That’s a lot of smoke!

5. That is literally Mordor

6. Putin’s city once, now Putin’s gate to hell. 😁

7. Where did I but my marshmallows.

8. That is a lot of toxic smoke….

9. PRETTY!

   265 meters on a side if square.

10. Nobody likes being drafted or having their kid shot up for nothing but higher prices in the stores for shittier goods.

11. It sure looks like Mordor.

12. Oh no! I do hope it’s nothing trivial.

13. Sorry, I dropped my cigar…

14. I can’t comprehend how cold it must be to have such a big fire so close to snow and it not looking to be melting.

15. Toasty

16. That place looks huge. I wonder how automated it was and how many fatalities there are? Wonder how financially damaging it is to all those attached? Lost jobs, insurance, liability to the business owner.  Doing the work that sanctions couldnt😅 

17. Not bad, props to the arsonist.

18. Oh. Good one. Somebody get out the wieners.

19. Nice. I hope nothing useful ist left.

20. St Petersburg can now compete with Chelyabinsk as the most polluted city in the world!

21. This warehouse processed about 750,000 shipments *per day*. That’s 22.5 *MILLION* orders a month. This is going to have a huge impact on the economy

22. It’s about MINUS 17C. I don’t think there’s any water to be pumped. So. Maybe throw some snowballs at it ? Definitely shouldn’t try peeing on it. 🤣🤣🤣

    edit : Actually, if you’re in St Petersberg please DO try and pee on it.

23. Damn, St Petersburg fire response is horrible. It would take a fire a LONG time to get that big and I don’t see any trucks in the pic.

24. Even if it is arson, how the hell it spread that much. At that point that’s just negligence

25. HIGH FIVE to whoever did this 👍
