Fire at the oil depot in Klintsy
On the night of January 19, the Bryansk region of Russia was attacked by a drone, which was allegedly suppressed by electronic warfare. However, later it became known that a large-scale fire broke out at the oil depot in Klintsy.
A representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Andrey Yusov, explained that this base provides fuel to the occupying forces, so this will help complicate the logistics of the Russian army.
