A car parked in the courtyard of a residential building in Krasnodar caught fire, and the flames spread to two more vehicles. This was reported via the Telegram channel of the regional department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which provided ongoing updates on the incident.

Initial information indicates a short circuit in the electrical cables of one vehicle sparked a flame that then spread to nearby cars. A police statement confirmed that investigators are actively examining the scene and that the case remains under active inquiry.

At around three o’clock in the morning, a parked car in the parking lot of the Mosaic residential complex began burning. The fire left the vehicle completely unusable and then extended to a nearby Mazda, with damage to its engine compartment. A Hyundai Solaris also sustained damage, including a melted bumper and a burned left side of the body.

Earlier reports note another unrelated incident in which a driver, while leaving a courtyard area in St. Petersburg, was attacked with a katana. Authorities are monitoring all security developments and are responding to any reports of violence or property damage in the city.

In Krasnodar, investigators are pursuing multiple leads to determine the exact cause of the fire, including electrical system faults, arcing, and potential ignition sources within the vehicles. Firefighting crews secured the scene, ensured nearby residents were safe, and worked to prevent the flames from spreading to adjacent structures. The incident underscores the importance of proper vehicle maintenance, attentive parking practices, and quick reporting of any electrical anomalies to authorities. Community safety units have increased patrols in affected areas while the investigation continues, with updates expected as more information becomes available. Residents are urged to stay clear of damaged vehicles until declared safe and to follow official guidance from local law enforcement and emergency services. The ongoing inquiry will assess mechanical issues, potential accidental causes, and any contributory factors such as storage of flammable materials in or around vehicles, but no definitive conclusions have been announced yet. The public is advised to rely on verified briefings and avoid sharing unverified rumors. The original reports from law enforcement and city emergency services emphasize a coordinated response to prevent further incidents and to protect residents as investigators work to determine responsibility and to implement any necessary safety measures in the community.
