This is the fourth case of strikes on Tuapse in recent times. Previous attacks were recorded, in particular, on April 16.

Then, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the strike fell on an oil refinery in the city, where a tank farm was hit, causing a subsequent fire.

The next strike occurred on April 20 and caused a new large-scale fire, which could not be extinguished until April 24. Almost 300 people and 77 pieces of equipment were involved in the work. Despite this, the russians began to complain about the oil leak, which burned right in the streets and fell on the city in the form of rain. The area of ​​​​the oil slick that formed off the coast of Tuapse reached 10,000 square meters.

The third attack occurred on the night of April 28 and again caused a large fire.
