Israel Strikes Fuel Depots Near Tehran, Igniting Fires and Smoke Over the Capital

Israel bombed fuel depots near Tehran and Karaj—marking the first known attack on Iran’s fuel infrastructure in the war—causing large fires and dense smoke over the capital. Residents described apocalyptic skies, black rain, and health concerns from pollutants; Tehran officials said the overall fuel supply remains intact but a temporary shortage is expected as repairs take two to three days. The World Health Organization noted potential health risks from the resulting air pollutants.

Iran fuel-depot strikes trigger US backfire worries and higher oil prices

Israel’s overnight strikes on 30 Iranian fuel depots in Tehran, not oil production facilities, drew U.S. alarm that the attack could backfire by rallying Iranian public support and pushing oil prices higher, even as Israel says the targets aim to deter attacks on civilian infrastructure; the episode revealed a rare disagreement between allies and points to high-level talks ahead.

"Multiple Russian Fuel Depots Engulfed in Flames After Ukrainian Drone Strikes"

Two Russian fuel depots were targeted in drone attacks across nine regions of Russia, causing fires and disruptions to power supplies. The attacks, attributed to Ukraine, resulted in the destruction of 25 Ukrainian drones and the interception of missiles and shells by Russian air defense forces. No casualties were reported, but evacuations were undertaken as a precautionary measure. This marks a continuation of drone attacks by the Ukrainian army into Russian territory since the start of the war in February 2022.

Rising Tensions: Suspected Drone Attacks Target Russian Fuel Depots and Refineries.

Suspected drone attacks hit fuel supply depots in Russia, including the Novoshakhtinsk Oil Products plant and the Ilsky refinery, with fires reported at both locations. These attacks are believed to be part of a plan to disrupt Russian logistics and defensive preparations ahead of Ukraine's anticipated counteroffensive. While it is unclear who is behind the attacks, long-range drone strikes on Russian soil and in Russian-controlled areas against fuel-related targets are increasing. Ukraine has denied attacking Russian soil and has focused on defending its own territory.
