Quote from Reznichenko: “Firefighters have put out a fire at an oil depot in the Novomoskovsk district. It took more than 108 hours to tame the flames.”
Details: The head of the Oblast Military Administration said that the Russian attack had claimed the lives of three people, while 14 had suffered burns and injuries. Eight of the injured are in hospital.
Background:

- While extinguishing a fire at the oil depot, a fuel tank exploded, killing one rescuer and hospitalising two others.
- On 20 June, the body of another casualty was found during rescue work in the burning oil depot. Three people were therefore killed by the Russian attack.
