Russian airstrike hits oil depot in northern Ukraine
An oil depot was shelled by Russian forces in the city of Chernihiv, northern Ukraine, on Thursday morning.
“On March 3, at about 08:10 in Chernihiv on Chudinov Street on the territory of the state enterprise "Aster combine", a shell hit an oil depot during an airstrike, as a result of which a tank group with a total capacity of 5 thousand cubic meters caught fire,” the State Emergency Service said.
Footages from the city show clouds of thick black smoke from what appear to be oil tanks, with firefighters and emergency workers on the scene. (ILKHA)
