What happened

KLO said its oil depot in the Brovary district of Kyiv Oblast ceased operating after a Russian aerial attack overnight on 20 August. Ukrainian reporting based on KLO's statement and video said the strike damaged the depot and destroyed fuel-storage tanks; KLO reported that no employees were injured and said it was arranging alternative supply, storage and logistics while addressing the damage. Russia's Defence Ministry separately claimed the Brovary fuel-and-lubricants depot held up to 8,000 cubic metres of fuel intended for Ukraine's armed forces. Neither KLO nor independent reporting reviewed for this record corroborated that capacity or asserted military end use, so both details remain attributed claims rather than established facts. The specific weapon and exact depot coordinates were not published; the marker is an approximate Brovary reference, roughly 20 kilometres east of central Kyiv.
