The authorities warned that the amount of water needed to extinguish the fire may also affect the quality and quantity of water supplies for the residents. In recent months, Ukrainian forces have launched a series of drone strikes aimed at damaging Russia's oil industry, whose profits fuel Moscow's war efforts. Recently, a fire following a Ukrainian strike in the Kavkaz oil and petroleum storage facility just outside Proletarsk, a town in Russia's Rostov Oblast, was extinguished after 11 days and injured 49 Russian firefighters.
