Fire burning at oil refinery in Russian Black Sea port following drone attack

A fire continues to burn at an oil depot in the Russian Black Sea port city of Tuapse, following a drone attack on Thursday night.

Russia’s Black Sea coast came under attack, with a 14-year old girl and a woman killed, according to Krasnodar region’s authorities.

“In the city of Tuapse, two people, including a minor, were killed as a result of crimes committed by Ukrainian militants,” Russian Investigative Committee spokesperson, Svetlana Petrenko said.

Tuapse is home to one of Russia’s largest ports and a refinery, owned by oil company Rosneft.

Krasnodar region Gov. Veniamin Kondratyev said attacks damaged six apartment buildings, 24 private houses and three schools.
