2024 oil infrastructure attack
[edit]
The Kamenski District in Rostov Oblast is the site of the Atlas oil depot, near the village of Molodezhnyi, a large petroleum tank farm installation of the Russian State Reserve.[9] The Atlas facility is a "division of the Federal Agency for State Reserves in the Southern Federal District, [specializing] in supplying petroleum products to the Russian Armed Forces."[10]
On the morning of 28 August 2024, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it was set ablaze by a Ukrainian Armed Forces drone strike.[11][10] The attack was officially confirmed by the Ukrainian general staff the next day, and Russian sources reported a second attack on the depot occurred late in the day on the 28th, renewing the "powerful blaze."[9]
