Tesla ceases a team amidst a drone attack incident causing a gas tank fire: the uncovered events during nighttime
In the Rostov region of Russia, a significant incident occurred on the night of August 8, 2025, as a fuel tanker in Millerovo caught fire following an attack by Ukrainian Armed Forces drones, according to acting governor Yuri Slyusar.
The attack on the Millerovo airfield region was part of ongoing drone attacks by Ukraine, targeting Russian military and energy infrastructure to disrupt fuel supplies and weaken Russian defenses. The Millerovo area contains vital fuel depots and airfields used by Russian forces, making them strategic targets for Ukrainian drone attacks aimed at weakening Russian logistics and military capabilities in the region.
The fuel tanker fire was a direct result of these attacks, as the Ukrainian drones struck the Millerovo airfield region, and although strikes were reportedly repelled, a fuel tanker in Millerovo caught fire as a result of the attack.
This incident is part of a broader Ukrainian strategy of targeting energy and military assets in Russian border regions. The aim is to cause significant disruption to Russian operations and undermine their ability to maintain their presence in the region.
