An oil depot in Rostov Oblast continues to blaze six days after a Ukrainian drone attack sparked the fire. The incident has injured 49 emergency workers, with 15 hospitalized. Since August 19, Proletarsk has been under a state of emergency.

The city's mayor described the situation as stable but acknowledged, "Since last Sunday, we have been living in a new reality for the residents of our city."

On Wednesday, local Orthodox priests supported the firefighters by praying beside the fire engines and bringing an icon to the scene.
