💥🔥The Rosrezerv Atlas plant in the Kamensky District of the Rostov Region, is burning after a UAV attack.

"This is Atlas burning again. The explosion was around 3 a.m., <…> It's scary to sleep,"

Since it began operations, the 'Atlas' facility has specialized in the storage of petroleum products, according to local media. The facility also supplies fuel to the Russian army, journalists claim. 'In August 2020, joint exercises were held at the "Atlas" facility between the Ministry of Defense and Rosrezerv as part of the "Caucasus-2020" drills. The exercises demonstrated three methods of fuel supply for the army—by road, rail, and pipeline,' according to a 2023 publication by the newspaper "Zemlya."

The facility was previously attacked in early August.

Belarus and Iran congratulated Ukraine on Independence Day
Belarus and Iran have both sent their congratulations to Ukraine on its 33rd year of independence from the former Soviet Union, despite the two countries' close ties with russia.
According to Belarusian newsagency Belta, president Aleksandr Lukashenko said his citizens have "always had a special respect and warm regard" for the Ukrainian people.
"We are united not only by the common fate and family ties, but also by the desire to be friends and get along with neighbours," he was cited as saying.
Belarus acted as a staging post for russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and Mr Lukashenko is one of Vladimir Putin's key allies.
Meanwhile, the Iranian foreign ministry published a message on social media saying it was congratulating the government and people of Ukraine on its independence.
Tehran is alleged to have provided Moscow with hundreds of deadly drones, as well as other weapons, for use in its war on Ukraine.

On August 25, the russians targeted an emergency vehicle with an FPV drone while it was evacuating people from Ukraine's Pokrovsk district, according to the Donetsk State Emergency Service.

At the time of the attack, two rescuers, a policeman, and four civilians, including an eight-year-old child, were inside the vehicle.

Fortunately, no one was injured, though the armoured car sustained damage.

Anyone who targets emergency vehicles, emergency workers or those in their care is seriously sick in the head!!!

Russia loves to manufacture its own history and erase that which doesn't fall into line with its own claims. Hey lets take a look at the mural painted in Mariupol that was painted by an Italian painter Ciro Cerullo on request from the Russian government. The one that depicts who they claimed was a little girl named Nastya from the Donbas.... With NATO bombs falling behind her.

HER MOTHER WHO IS AUSTRALIAN wasn't exactly happy when she realized that they used a photo of HER daughter from a photography magazine from years prior.

And meanwhile, they covered up an actual mural in Mariupol of a little girl who lost her leg and her mother to russian bombs 😡😡😡
