Video shows Russian air-defense missile hit Kapotnya oil depot near Moscow, blasting tank roof off

Ukraine launched a large-scale drone attack that heavily damaged the Kapotnya oil depot near Moscow, with on-site video showing a Russian air-defense missile striking a storage tank and triggering an explosion that sent the lid airborne in a huge fireball and black smoke. The depot supplies 40% of Moscow’s fuel and 70% of the surrounding region’s fuel. The incident sparked multiple fires across the capital area, prompted mass flight cancellations and led to heightened security around Red Square. The strike directly damaged key refining infrastructure and disrupted regional supplies of refined products, creating a short-term supply shock for the crude market.
