A drone strike caused a fire at a service station in Mykolaiv Oblast: State Emergency Service report

In the evening of October 12, Russians attacked the grounds of a service station in the Mykolaiv district with a drone. The strike sparked a fire. According to the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, no one was killed or injured.

The fire engulfed the station itself and the adjacent open area where car tires were stored. Rescuers extinguished the blaze across a total area of 370 square meters.

Firefighting operations took place under the threat of further shelling. As a result, rescuers had to retreat to a safe distance.

A Magirus Wolf R1 firefighting robot was deployed to tackle the blaze in several hard-to-reach areas.
