Drone strike sparks large fire in Ukraine's Volyn, prompting evacuations

A Russian drone attack on a warehouse and production facility in the urban-type settlement of Manevychi, Volyn Oblast, caused a large fire, prompting local authorities to urge residents to evacuate their homes. The fire is intense with heavy smoke, and a northern wind is blowing toward the settlement. The head of the settlement advised residents in the "Tridtsatka" area to leave their homes, while the regional governor recommended staying indoors with windows and doors closed. Authorities later denied an ammonia leak, confirming measurements were within normal limits and tanks were undamaged. The fire has been localized, and emergency services are working to fully extinguish it. The attack is part of an intensified Russian drone campaign on Volyn Oblast, which recently killed one person and injured eight in the same settlement, and disrupted power and water supplies in Lutsk.
