According to the report, the flames completely destroyed the company's warehouse. \"The most important thing is that our employees are safe and no one was injured,\" the company wrote on Facebook. \"A human life is priceless.\" Although tons of products were destroyed, Russia could not destroy the company's reputation, the team, and the faith in Ukraine, Liqui Moly announced.
