* Four oil tanks hit by Ukrainian ‘drone strike’ at naval port in annexed Crimea
* Video shows huge fireball raging and Russia says fire will not be out until tonight
A huge ball of fire is raging in Crimea after a suspected Ukrainian aerial drone strike hit a major fuel depot in the heart of an annexed naval port Sevastopol today.
Footage showed a fireball with huge flames and a mushroom-like black cloud from a major fire triggered by two explosions in Cossack Bay, in the Crimean Peninsula.
The blasts came at 4:20am and 4:21am local time (2.20am and 2.21am UK time), and appear to be the latest attempt by Ukraine to strike at Russia’s naval firepower base in the annexed peninsula.

WNU Editor: Russian authorities say the fire is out, there were no casualties, and it will not hinder supplies. We shall see.
