Massive blaze erupts in Russia after Ukrainian drone strike on huge oil depot
ALBAWABA - Russian emergency officials say that a Ukrainian drone strike caused a big fire to start at a major oil store in Russia's Krasnodar region early Sunday morning.

He said that the attack was part of a pattern of Ukrainian strikes on Russian infrastructure, which Kyiv sees as important to Moscow's war operations. Through Telegram, Russia's Ministry of Defense said that overnight, its air defenses stopped 93 Ukrainian drones, including 60 over the Black Sea and one above Krasnodar. However, the ministry's report only talked about the drones that were shot down and not the ones that were launched. Russia's airport body (Rosaviatsia) said that because of the attack, planes at Sochi International Airport were temporarily stopped for safety reasons. Operations started up again at 2:00 AM GMT. Ukraine Says It Will Do Targeted Attacks Later, Ukraine's Armed Forces revealed that the drone attack was part of a larger plan to target key Russian assets with precise strikes. The attacks were a direct response, according to the General Staff, to recent Russian attacks on Ukrainian towns that killed many people. Last week, the Russian government banned gasoline exports to curb shortages and record prices. It didn't stop price now Ukraine is destroying the very refineries that make that gasoline.

Paris 2024 Olympics - Mountain Bike - Women's Cross-country - Elancourt Hill, Elancourt, France - July 28, 2024. Pauline Ferrand Prevot of France celebrates winning gold. REUTERS/Matthew Childs/File Photo CHATEL, France (Reuters) -Olympic champion Pauline Ferrand-Prevot became the first Frenchwoman to win the Tour de France Femmes on Sunday, pushing through three punishing climbs to win the final stage ahead of 2023 champion Demi Vollering, who finished second overall. The 33-year-old of team Visma–Lease a Bike held steady through the 124.1km ride from Praz-sur-Arly to Chatel, before launching a decisive attack in the last seven kilometres. Vollering (FDJ–Suez) stayed in a group with Ferrand-Prevot for the majority of the ninth stage, but could not break away to make up her deficit of more than three minutes coming into the last day. Ferrand-Prevot, who won gold in women's cross-country mountain biking at last year's Paris Games, had taken the yellow jersey from Kimberley Le Court on Saturday. Lorena Wiebes (Team SD Worx–Protime), who has led the points classification since stage three, did not chase the leading group and was on track to win the green jersey to deny Dutch compatriot Marianne Vos (Visma-Lease a Bike) a third Tour title in the category.
