On the night of September 15, explosions and fires at industrial facilities were reported in various regions of Russia. Specifically, incidents occurred at the Sebrakovcement plant in the Volgograd Region and at the Syzran Oil Refinery in the Samara Region.
This was reported by the Exilenova+ Telegram channel.
On the night of September 14, explosions were heard at the "Sebryakovcement" plant in the Volgograd region of Russia. Prior to this, a missile and drone alert had been issued in the region, after which fire crews were dispatched to the plant.
According to the Exilenova+ Telegram channel, the explosion occurred near cement kiln No. 5. Footage released online shows smoke rising above the plant’s grounds.
Explosions and a fire have also been reported in Syzran, Samara Oblast, where Rosneft’s Syzran Oil Refinery is located. According to preliminary reports, storage tanks containing petroleum products may have caught fire within the industrial zone. The day before, an air raid alert was issued in the city due to the threat of a drone attack.
In addition, reports have emerged of a possible missile strike on the G. M. Beriev Taganrog Aviation Scientific and Technical Complex, where military aircraft are repaired and modernized.
However, there is currently no official confirmation regarding any of these incidents.
As a reminder, the fuel situation in Russia is deteriorating amid the shutdown of oil refineries. Currently, seven refineries have completely halted oil processing, while another plant is operating at only about 25% of its capacity.
