A fire occurred in Bryansk at night, accompanied by loud sounds that were heard by city residents. At the moment, there is no official information about the causes of the incident and its consequences. According to eyewitnesses, the sounds were heard in various areas of the city, which caused alarm among the population.

Local residents are putting forward a version of a possible attack on one of the infrastructure facilities, presumably an oil depot. However, these claims have not yet been confirmed, and the location of the fire could not be accurately geolocated. Russian official agencies are also refraining from commenting.

Locals say fire services and emergency response teams have arrived at the scene, but details about the size of the fire and possible casualties have not been released. Videos and photos from the scene that have appeared on social media show bright flashes and thick smoke rising into the night sky.

The Bryansk region has previously been the target of drone attacks on numerous occasions due to its proximity to the border.
