Unexplained Fires Engulf Russian Tank Farms; Oil Pipeline to Germany May Be at Risk – Opinion

On Monday morning local time, two Russian oil tank farm explosions occurred in Bryansk.  Bryansk lies approximately 250 miles north of Kiev, Ukraine’s capital and is less than 70 miles away from the Ukrainian border.

Here’s my thought:

Over the past week, we’ve seen unexplained fires at three significant facilities inside Russia in just two days (read Bad Luck Strikes Russia as Three Major Fires in Two Days Damage Defense and Private Industry).

Two strikes were carried out by Ukraine last month on Russian territory. It hit an ammunition storage area and a fuel storage depot (see Ukraine Attacks Fuel Depot Miles Inside of Russia—or Did It?).

The tank farms that are on fire would support ongoing Russian “special operations” in Eastern Ukraine.

A tank farm setting fire to one is reckless; two are quite extravagant. It is impossible for two tanks farms geographically separate to go Zippo in the same night. This violates the law of probabilities.

This is all a continuation of earlier stories about an explosion and fire affecting an oil pipeline from Germany.
