**Ukrainian Drones Strike Oil Depot in Russian City of Oryol**
A Ukrainian drone attack on an oil depot in the suburbs of the Russian city of Oryol has caused a fire to break out. The incident occurred overnight on December 22.
According to reports from Oryol Oblast Governor Andrey Klychkov, multiple explosions were heard around 12:30 p.m. local time. Videos posted on social media show large explosions lighting up the night sky around the city.
No casualties or injuries have been reported as a result of the attack, according to Klychkov. However, the extent of the damage caused is not immediately clear.
**This is Not the First Attack**
The oil depot in Oryol was previously targeted by Ukrainian drones just one week ago, causing a large fire that burned for several days. This latest attack comes as Ukraine continues to target Russia’s oil industry and military supply chain.
Over the past year, Ukrainian forces have launched a series of drone strikes aimed at damaging Russia’s oil industry and disrupting its war efforts. The attacks have also targeted residential areas and industrial buildings in Russian cities.
**Russia’s War Efforts**
The attack on Oryol is just one example of Ukraine’s ongoing efforts to counter Russia’s military actions. As the full-scale invasion continues, Ukraine has continued to attack Russian targets along the Russia-Ukraine border.
Earlier this month, Ukrainian drones reportedly attacked a residential and industrial building in the Russian city of Kazan, suspending flights at the local airport.
