As a result of a Russian drone attack on Dnipro on Monday, January 5, 300 tons of oil spilled onto the city's roads. Certain roads have been closed for several days, according to Dnipro Mayor Borys Filatov.
"As a result of the Russian drone attack on Dnipro, 300 tons of oil spilled on the roads! Municipal workers are cleaning up, throwing sand and a mixture, but it will be impossible to drive along the embankment for about 2-3 days," he says.
Filatov adds that the Russians bombed US property, as the plant belongs to Bunge, a company based in St. Louis, Missouri.
