Several Russian cities, including Lipetsk, St. Petersburg, and Vsevolozhsk, are battling extensive fires, according to reports. Thousands of square meters are reportedly ablaze, with authorities currently investigating the causes. The fires come after Ukraine conducted strikes on Russian logistical infrastructure on Monday. While officials have not directly linked the fires to the strikes, the timing has raised questions. The extent of the damage and potential casualties remain unclear, and investigations are ongoing. Ukrainian officials have not commented on the fires specifically, but continue to state attacks target military and logistical assets.
