While no injuries were reported, investigators and emergency managers maintained a watchful stance for any shifting conditions that could require additional action. (Source: Rostov EMER)

The scale of the response reflected the potential of the storage facility to ignite rapidly given its inventory of paper products. Local authorities urged people in the vicinity to follow official advisories and avoid the area to ensure public safety during the operation. (Source: Rostov EMER)
