A large-scale fire broke out.

On the night of November 28-29, drones attacked an oil depot in the Kamensky district of the Rostov region of the Russian Federation, causing a large fire on its territory. This was reported by the Russian publication Astra.

"Right now, a large fire at the Atlas oil depot near Kamensk in Rostov is visible to motorists on the M-4 highway," the report reads.

In one of the published videos, a male voiceover claims that the oil depot was recently attacked.

"It was probably just hit. It's burning well," the man says.

Local residents are posting photos of the burning Atlas Oil Refinery. Local social media provides information that at least two tanks with oil products are burning.

Journalists recalled that the Armed Forces of Ukraine already attacked this oil depot in August 2024.

At the same time, the acting governor of the Rostov region, Yuri Slyusar, reported that the region had been subjected to a massive attack by Ukrainian drones.

“Currently, 30 UAVs have already been destroyed and suppressed by electronic warfare in the northwest of the Rostov region,” Slyusar wrote.

According to him, the falling drone debris caused “consequences on the ground,” but he did not comment on the information about the fire at the oil depot.
