Explosions and fires in Russia

Since the beginning of the full-scale war, explosions and fires at Russian facilities have become increasingly common occurrences. In particular, the Security Service of Ukraine and the Defence Intelligence have carried out operations targeting airports, oil refineries, and substations in Russia.

Recently, there were complaints in Russia about a strike on the Oil Combine substation in Sudzha, Kursk region. Specifically, a fuel base in Krasnodar Krai was recently struck, resulting in a massive fire at two petroleum product reservoirs.
