Ukrainian drones set fire to an oil depot in Russia's Rostov region and attempted to strike the Kirov region, located about 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) northeast of the Ukrainian border, according to local authorities on Wednesday.

Rostov Governor Vasily Golubev confirmed the fire at the Kamensky district oil depot but assured that there were no casualties. He stated via Telegram that firefighters were on the scene working to control the blaze.

The Russian defense ministry reported that four drones were intercepted and destroyed over the Rostov region overnight but did not mention the oil depot attack. However, the Baza Telegram channel, which has connections to Russian security services, reported that two drones had hit the Kamensky oil depot, resulting in three burning tanks.

Videos shared on Russian social media depicted large tanks on fire at night, and one video was identified as being from the Kamensky district in Rostov.

No immediate response was received from Ukrainian officials regarding the attack.

This incident followed an earlier attack on a fuel storage depot in the same Kamensky district in early August.

On the same day, drones also targeted an oil products depot in Kotelnich, a town in the Kirov region. Governor Alexander Sokolov reported that while the drones caused some damage, they did not result in any casualties or fires at the depot. Two drones were shot down, and three that landed at the depot caught fire but were quickly extinguished, with no flames reaching the fuel stores.

In a separate incident, Voronezh Governor Alexander Gusev reported that debris from a Ukrainian drone triggered a fire near explosive materials in his region. The fire was quickly put out, and residents from two nearby settlements who had been evacuated were returning to their homes. The Russian defense ministry stated that eight attack drones were destroyed over Voronezh, but did not provide further details.

Russian officials often withhold comprehensive damage reports following Ukrainian attacks. Both sides assert that they do not target civilians in the ongoing conflict, with Kyiv maintaining that its air strikes aim to hit critical infrastructure supporting Moscow’s military operations.
