At least 2 tanks burning, potentially a 3rd impacted as well
Discoloration to 3 other tanks could indicate damage but not 100% sure
Fair amount of fire crews on seen but no sign of suppression

The fire spread to other tanks.

📸 We show satellite images of the fire at the Atlas oil depot in the Rostov region of the Russian Federation.
In the photo, which was published by the Russian service of Radio Liberty, it can be seen that two tanks with fuel are on fire, and several more have traces of damage. It is known that the attack was that night.
Officially, Ukraine did not confirm this, but the mass media, citing sources, wrote that the GUR and SSO hit the oil depot of a Ukrainian-made UAV.
A new explosion has occurred at the burning Atlas oil depot in the Kamensky district of the Rostov region, eyewitnesses report on social networks
When you consider the height of those tanks, and that the fireball is many times that height, that is a truly massive ball of flame.
LOL this was newly constructed too. Google maps only shows that they broke ground sometime this year.
And people say war is bad for the environment
By the Goddess those watermarks are obnoxious.
That is amazing. At this rate, Russia will have to try and buy oil from the EU.
Oh, that would be hilarious.
Is it just me, or does that fireball look like a really judgmental bird?
That was nice of Ukraine; the last one looks like it finally burned out, so they lit another one.
I can’t imagine how frustrating it must be to be getting a report after another about yet again one being struck and catching fire.
That’s the bitter dark reality of life in Ukraine for over two years now.
And it’s schools and hospitals and housing in the cities being hit day and night, not some industrial areas somewhere out of town.
May it burn for 9 days like the last one
meanwhile the russians are bombing churches and schools.
SLAVA UKRAINE, I hope russians freeze this winter. And then Putin hangs for it.
How much of this has to happen before they decide in the kremblin that this Three-Day Operation, Comrade has exceeded any sort of acceptable cost level, and that there is only more and more and more of this sunk-cost fallacy into the future beyond the horizon, on this idiotic, destructive and self-destructive warpath?
Things did not go the way they wanted in their greedy cruelty. Neither at home or abroad. They are a pariah nation, seen as a toxic laughingstock. Straight ahead, there is all of the cost with none of the reward by insisting on… what is it at this point, exactly? What is the prize, at this point? Is that society so utterly, bitterly stubborn that they will mindlessly choose only misery every single goddamned time?
They still hold a big chunk of land in Ukraine, so they do have something to show for all they’ve sacrificed.
If they get pushed out of Ukraine by force, they really will be in trouble.
I also don’t see how the government in Russia can change without people dying at this point.
The shitty thing is people are dying already, we’re well past that point. What needs to change is that somehow still dying on the front is more acceptable than risking it in some kind of mass protest movement.
