    Just note that be big flame on the left is just the flare burning, literally what it is supposed to do. The fire in the right might be an actual fire… or just another flare? Whoever took the photo or cropped it did not care about this.

      If you look at the video inside the article youll see that the flare is out, which is probably more revealing than the actual fire pictures.

        Yep, Ukraine isn’t and hasn’t been trying to set entire refineries on fire, they’ve been targeting very specific parts of the process that are difficult to repair and take a while to do so. That’s almost impossible to show in a video or pic. Analyzing them in this way is pointless.

      Damn I was hoping to make it in here before you filthy Russian terrorists made it into the comments trying to disparage Ukrainians for defending themselves.

      My comment was going to say, “inb4 the Russian bot farm tries to call this a war crime!” Oh well, I’ll just respond to this bot account instead.

      Debatable. Infrastructure can be a legitimate target if it supplies the military. Obviously, military equipment requires fuel.

        That is civilian infrastructure.

        It’s a war crime to attack civilian infrastructure. This isn’t debatable.
