Massive fire at Russian oil depot in Feodosia shows no sign of stopping

In Feodosia, in the temporarily occupied Crimea, a fire at an oil base has intensified. The fire cannot be extinguished because all the fuel has not burned out yet.

This was reported by the Crimean Wind monitoring group on Wednesday, October 9.

Oil depot on fire in Feodosia

The fire at the oil depot in Feodosia has intensified. The Russian Ministry for Emergency Situations notes that the fire will not be extinguished until all the fuel in tanks is burned out.

The oil depot is therefore likely to burn for several days. During this time, there is a possibility of a massive explosion.

Russian military personnel stationed nearby are advised to keep their windows open to avoid being blown away by the shock wave.

As we reported earlier, a fire broke out at the oil depot in Feodosia, on the night of October 7. Serhii Bratchuk said that new explosions had been heard there the night before.

On the night of October 4, a fire broke out at a private oil storage facility in the Perm region of the Russian Federation. The flames engulfed fuel tanks.
