In Russian-occupied Mariupol, Russian air defense systems may have been damaged following a large fire and heavy smoke observed in the city’s Prymorskyi district.
According to the Mariupol City Council, citing the Center for the Study of Occupation, the blaze was recorded in an area where Russian forces had reportedly deployed air defense equipment. A photo shared by the council shows thick smoke rising from the site. Occupation-linked social media channels have not yet commented on the blaze.
As earlier reported, Russian troops continue to expand their military presence in Mariupol, with new bases appearing almost daily.
