"There was a hit on industrial fuel storage facilities. Special services are extinguishing the fire. There are no casualties,"
Earlier, authorities reported restrictions on traffic at the exit from Yaroslavl towards Moscow due to the threat of drone attacks. Later, the closures were lifted, and the drone danger alert in the region was canceled.
