Russian oil depot catches fire after Ukrainian drone downed

Ukraine said it was behind a drone strike that sparked a huge inferno at an oil depot in the town of Klintsy in western Russia on Friday, the latest in a series of escalating cross-border attacks. The strike is the second on a Russian oil depot in as many days, part of what Kyiv has called ‘fair’ retaliation for Moscow’s strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Videos showed a huge fireball tearing through the oil depot’s storage tanks, while a cloud of black smoke billowed over the town of some 60,000 inhabitants

  15. Question: Why is Russia "accusing" Ukraine of the refinery fire, but refused to comment on most other fires over the past year? Is it, perhaps, because Russia shot down the drone over the facility, and the resulting debris caused the fire, therefore they too are at fault?

  19. The enemy is the West which tries to sell us expired goods ( through the news outlets) only ignorant people will believe their side of the story.
