The map was compiled from current Planet Labs satellite images for 2023. All data are marked with exact coordinates and a photo. Thus, journalists first of all want to warn Crimeans about the danger associated with these places.

• The sounds of explosions are often heard in the temporarily occupied Crimea. In particular, on April 29, a large-scale fire broke out in temporarily occupied Sevastopol, at an oil depot near Kozacha Bay. According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the fire destroyed 10 tanks of petroleum products with a total capacity of approximately 40 000 tons. The spokeswoman of the OC "South" called the detonation of the oil depot in Sevastopol an element of preparation for the Ukrainian counteroffensive.
