A fire occurred at an oil depot in the Russian city of Tuapse in the Krasnodar Krai.

The Russian media and social media pages reported this.

Local authorities have already confirmed the fact of a fire at an oil depot owned by Rosneft.

On the night of February 28, local residents heard two explosions a few seconds apart near the oil depot.

It is reported that a fire broke out around 2 a.m.

According to local rescue services, the message about the emergency was received at 02:15 a.m.

The fire was extinguished by 3 a.m.

Russian Telegram channels report that the oil depot was allegedly attacked by unknown drones that fell near the oil storage facility and exploded.

Also, a video published by eyewitnesses allegedly features the area of the oil depot in Tuapse, which might testify to the work of the Russian anti-aircraft defense against aircraft over the city.

It is reported that as a result of the fire, the boiler room was damaged, and two one-and-a-half-meter-deep holes were discovered next to the building.

No casualties were reported as a result of this incident.

The local authorities have traditionally stated that residents have no reason to worry and that the situation is under control.
