A horror fire has erupted at a massive Russian oil refinery after a suspected Ukrainian drone attack. The sky over the Tuapse Oil Refinery turned red as a fire engulfed one of Russia’s major southern ports, resulting in the deaths of two children.
Veniamin Kondratiev, governor of the Krasnodar region, said two children aged 5 and 14 were killed in what he called a massive attack by Ukrainian drones on Tuapse. Two adults were also injured in the large explosions last night. Unverified images published by Russian media shows the night sky illuminated in red from the raging fire.
Eyewitnesses also shared dramatic images under a mile from the scene on Kavkazskaya Street. Sergei Boiko, the head of the Tuapse municipality, said fragments from the drone strike fell on enterprises at the port. He added no further information.
Ukraine has yet to comment on the incident.
