A gasoline-storage depot in Russia's western region of Kursk near the Ukrainian border caught fire after being hit by two Ukrainian drones on March 6, regional Governor Roman Starovoit said on Telegram, adding that there were no casualties. Kyiv has not commented on the strike. The reservoir was located on the territory of the Mikhailov mining and processing integrated plant in the city of Zheleznogorsk, which is one of Russia's largest industrial facilities producing and enriching iron ore. In April 2023, the plant was hit by U.S. sanctions over Russia's aggression against Ukraine. To read the original story by RFE/RL's Russian Service, click here.
