Russian warehouse burns after possible Ukrainian drone strike

A fire broke out at a home goods warehouse in western Russia early on Friday, June 16, which the governor said might have been caused by a Ukrainian drone.

Russia’s emergencies ministry released a video of firefighters at the warehouse, outside Kursk, and said around 2,000 square meters burned before it was extinguished. There were no reported injuries, it said.

Governor Roman Starovoit said security services were investigating whether a Ukrainian drone sparked the fire.
