Orsk

Town in Orenburg oblast (region) of the Russian Federation, in southwestern Siberia, at the junction of the rivers Ural and Or; population (2002) 251,000. Orsk is situated near the border with Kazakhstan, and lies 250 km/155 mi southwest of Orenburg (which was originally founded in 1735 on this site).

Petroleum products and heavy machinery (locomotives) are also manufactured in the city. The city was originally a fortress.
