Details: Videos shared by local residents show several fuel storage tanks burning, with a thick column of smoke rising into the sky.

The Ukrainian OSINT project CyberBoroshno said that the Armavir linear production and dispatch station is a key hub in the pipeline logistics system for petroleum products, where fuel is pumped through a main pipeline, stored in tank facilities and then loaded onto rail transport.

The group noted that the station is part of a broader energy supply chain, meaning that damage to it affects not just a single facility but the entire system of petroleum product transportation in that section.

The Krasnodar Krai operational HQ said that 120 firefighters and 38 fire engines were involved in extinguishing the fire, which covered an area of about 700 sq m.
