A fuel depot was on fire in Russia’s southern city of
Voronezh on Saturday, the local governor announced after Moscow said the army
was leading “combat” in the region amid a mutiny from Wagner mercenaries.
“In Voronezh, (authorities) are extinguishing a burning fuel
depot,” the governor Alexander Gusev said on Telegram. “There are 100
firefighters and more than 30 vehicles at the scene,” he added, saying there
were “no victims according to the first data.”
Gusev did not give the cause of the fire, but some media
have published a video showing a military helicopter in the area before an
explosion.
