Drones likely struck the Edelweiss-95 oil depot in Russia's Krasnodar Krai overnight on September 28, according to media reports cited by Ukrinform.
A fire broke out at the facility following the strikes, the reports said. Ukrinform did not attribute the strikes to a specific party, describing the drones as having "likely" targeted the depot.
Details on the scale of the fire, any casualties, or the extent of damage to the facility were not immediately available. Ukrinform said further information on the incident was still emerging.
The Krasnodar region, on Russia's Black Sea coast, has periodically reported drone incidents affecting energy infrastructure since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in 2022.
