Burning oil depots have shrouded Stavropol region in thick smoke following night-time attack by Ukrainian drones. VIDEO
Videos have been posted online in which eyewitnesses filmed a thick cloud of smoke that blanketed the Stavropol Krai following a night-time attack by Ukrainian drones.
According to Censor.NET, at least three oil depots may have caught fire as a result of the strike on the night of 19 July. The footage shows a thick plume of smoke that obscured a significant portion of the sky over the region.
The governor of the Stavropol Krai confirmed the drone attack and reported two fires in the industrial zone of the village of Vyazniki in the Shpakovsky District. A local state of emergency has also been declared in the area.
As a result of the large-scale fires, a cloud of smog has blanketed the region, meaning that in some parts of Stavropol, sunlight could barely penetrate the thick smoke.
