A fire broke out at a fuel depot near the city of Proletarsk, in Russia’s Rostov Oblast on this morning.

A Ukrainian intelligence source told Kyiv Post that the fire came as a result of a kamikaze drone attack organized by specialists from the military’s Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR).

The facility was being used for military purposes, the source said.

According to Governor Vasily Golubev, two explosions occurred at the fuel depot. Eyewitnesses reported that the facility burst into flames, although the Russian authorities deny any fire.

According to the HUR source, the fire at the facility was continuing as of this morning, and emergency services were still unable to extinguish it.

Because they haven't proven they can take any city that's competently defended without taking very high losses of men and equipment. Plus, it's a much bigger area than either Bakhmut or Avdiivka. Not sure why anyone would believe they would take it any faster than they did either one of those. Which, again, took multiple months and tons of losses in both cases. Yet they're gonna roll Kharkiv in a week? That's just not reality.

They may eventually take Kharkiv, but if they do, they're gonna pay dearly for it. Ukraine certainly isn't going to let it go without throwing everything they have at the attacking force.
