In Feodosia, in temporarily occupied Crimea, the oil depot hit by the Ukrainian Defense Forces last week has been almost completely destroyed. The fire was extinguished after nearly seven days, according to the Telegram channel “Krymskyi Veter.”
On 7 October, Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked the oil terminal in Feodosia, which is the largest on the peninsula in terms of transshipment of oil products used for the Russian army’s needs.
“A week after the fire started, the Feodosia oil terminal looks like this – charred reservoirs and islands of foam floating in lakes of water used to extinguish the fire,” the Telegram channel said.
In addition to the reservoirs, the storage facility’s infrastructure was severely damaged. The fire affected 12 reservoirs, 8 of which were destroyed. Buildings on the site were also burned down.
Earlier, “Atesh,” a pro-Ukrainian partisan movement, reported that following the strike, Russian troops faced a shortage of fuel.
The invaders began setting up mobile refueling stations, which have been changing locations to avoid further Ukrainian attacks. The Russian high command ordered fuel stations to remain in one location for only 10-12 hours.
