Fires break out in Russia's Lipetsk amid reported overnight attack

"Fires broke out at industrial facilities in the western Russian city of Lipetsk overnight on July 21 amid unconfirmed reports of an attack.
Independent monitoring channels Astra and Exilenova reported that residents heard explosions overnight and saw a large fire in the city. A missile alert had been in effect since the evening.

Lipetsk Regional Governor Igor Artamonov said a fire had broken out at industrial facilities in the city and that authorities were investigating its cause. He did not confirm that an attack had taken place.
Based on videos and photos shared by local residents, Astra said the fire appeared to have broken out near the Novolipetsk Steel (NLMK) plant and Lipetsk CHPP-2, a combined heat and power plant.
NLMK, located about 400 kilometers (250 miles) from the Russia-Ukraine border, is Russia's largest steel producer, accounting for roughly 20% of the country's steel output. According to Astra, the plant supplies steel to companies involved in missile manufacturing.
Lipetsk CHPP-2 is one of the largest thermal power plants in western Russia, supplying heat to the city and several nearby industrial facilities." KI
