   Russian firefighters tackle blaze after    
   01 Apr 22 13:10:22

   Russian firefighters were battling a huge blaze at a fuel depot near the   
   border with Ukraine on Friday after an explosion at the facility that the   
   local governor blamed on the Ukrainian military.   
      
   Videos on social media showed two helicopters flying at low altitude   
   before firing missiles at the depot in the city of Belgorod, causing a   
   fire that sent clouds of smoke billowing into the sky. Ukraine did not   
   immediately comment on the attack.   
      
   Viacheslav Gladkov, Belgorod’s governor, said in a statement on messaging   
   app Telegram that the helicopters flew low into Russian territory to carry   
   out the strike in the early morning. Two depot workers suffered non-life   
   threatening injuries, Gladkov added.   
      
   The incident in Belgorod, which is 40km from the Ukrainian border, would   
   be the first Ukrainian strike on Russian soil since Vladimir Putin invaded   
   the country in February.   
      
   Kremlin press secretary Dmitry Peskov said that Putin had been informed of   
   the attack.

   “Obviously this is not something you can say creates friendly conditions   
   for holding negotiations,” Peskov told reporters, according to Russian   
   news agency Interfax. He said Russia had “air dominance, that’s an   
   absolute fact” and denied to comment further on the strike.   
      
   It came two days after an explosion at an ammunition depot in Belgorod,   
   which is just over the border from Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city.   
   No cause has been given for the explosion.
