Details: Russian Telegram channels have reported another fire at a Russian Defence Ministry facility – a hospital for veterans under construction in Bryansk.

They posted videos showing thick black smoke rising above it.

According to the Mash channel, one possible reason for the fire is a UAV attack.

However, RIA Novosti, citing the regional authorities, said that construction waste had caught fire at the hospital construction site and claimed the fire was extinguished before firefighters arrived.
