A Ukrainian strike on September 4 destroyed six fuel reservoirs at an oil depot near the airport in Sochi, according to a satellite image analyzed by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty's Russian service. The attack targeted a Lukoil oil depot, where five to six fuel containers burned despite being protected by anti-drone nets. Russian authorities confirmed the drone attack and resulting fire, while Ukrainian officials did not comment. Since Russia's full-scale invasion, various targets in Russia and occupied Ukrainian territories have faced aerial strikes. Ukraine's General Staff has confirmed most attacks, stating they aim to reduce Russia's military potential and force an end to its aggression.
