NASA satellites recorded a large-scale fire at the Unecha oil pumping station in the Bryansk region of Russia, which broke out after being hit by a drone, according to journalist Andrii Tsaplienko.
Tsaplienko notes that NASA satellite images captured a large fire at the main oil pumping station Unecha in the Bryansk region of Russia.
According to preliminary data, the fire was caused by a drone strike. This facility is of strategic importance, as it is part of the oil transportation infrastructure that ensures the pumping of fuel through the territory of Russia.
Last week, the Russian city of Bryansk was massively attacked by unknown drones. Powerful explosions were heard in the city, after which a column of smoke appeared in the area of the local oil depot.
After the explosions, eyewitnesses wrote about a column of thick black smoke at the site of the drone debris in one of the districts of Bryansk.
Residents of other areas of the region reported hearing the sound of drones flying overhead and explosions.
Strikes on Russia's Bryansk region
At the end of June, the Bryansk region was attacked by strike drones for four days in a row. Several high-rise buildings in the city were even damaged by air defense systems.
On June 26, Ukrainian drones struck Russian army rocket fuel and fuel and lubricant storage facilities in Bryansk. A fire broke out at the oil depot.
In addition, the Ukrainian Defense Forces destroyed an Iskander missile complex near Bryansk.
