An oil terminal in temporarily occupied Feodosia, Crimea, was attacked. As a result of the strike, fuel storage tanks were destroyed. Radio Liberty posted images showing the aftermath of the strike.
According to new satellite images, as a result of two drone strikes on October 7 and 13, eleven fuel tanks were completely destroyed. Several others were damaged and are likely beyond repair.
Strikes on the Feodosia terminal
On the night of October 13, Ukrainian drones struck several facilities in temporarily occupied Crimea that are supporting Russia’s war against Ukraine, including the oil terminal in Feodosia and enemy substations.
The first strike on the Feodosia oil terminal was also reported and confirmed by the General Staff on October 6. A fire broke out then and could not be extinguished for several days.
According to the General Staff, this facility is a multifunctional complex that facilitates the transshipment of oil and petroleum products between rail tanks, seagoing vessels, and road transport. The terminal was actively used to meet the needs of the Russian forces.
As a result of the hit, a large-scale fire broke out on the facility’s premises.
